WHAT WE LEARN

BIBLE

​

Our children dive deep into God’s Word each day to discover the invitation God extends to be in a relationship with Him and share His story with others. They start each day with worship, prayer, Bible reading, and devotions individually or corporately to grow closer to God and to one another.
