 What It Looks Like   

 

 

First Look (birth to age 4)

First Look meets every Sunday morning beginning at 10:45 am and uses several key strategies:

• Teach less for more - Repeats one key truth (Bottom Line) all month long.

• Engage the five senses - Helps master the concept through creative activities.

• Teach with the end in mind - Helps a child by age five, to believe:

God Made Me   God Loves Me Jesus Wants to be My Friend Forever

• Experience worship - Encourages children to talk to God any time, any place.
• Connect at home - Provides parents with ideas for conversation with their child at home.

 

Up Street (K-6th grade)

Up Street (252Basics curriculum) meets every Sunday morning beginning at 10:45 am and is a unique approach to curriculum for churches and Christian schools. It is built around three Basic Truths every child should embrace according to what Jesus modeled in Luke 2:52.

    I need to make the wise choice
    I can trust God no matter what
    I should treat others the way I want to be treated

Each Basic Truth is amplified by a weekly key concept and systematically taught over a three-year track. The curriculum includes 150 Bible stories and is based on a Core Virtue and Memory Verse as the framework for each month.

 

 

 

 **So that you receive your child’s very important weekly Small Talk Card or God Time Card and Refrigerator door magnet,  we are asking Parents/Guardians to drop-off and pick-up your child(ren) at their classroom. Your child will not be permitted to leave without you.**

ALSO-

Be sure to drop by the Adult Bible Study classroom each month to pick-up your family’s Virtue Pack. This is a special tool designed to help you  engage with your child(ren) all month long as he or she learns about each Virtue. We are asking for a donation of $10.00 each month for Virtue packs to help defer our cost in providing them to you; however, it is not required-we want everyone to be able to have this special tool and enjoy the time using it with your child(ren)!

 

  XP3 (7th-12th grade)

XP3 (Experience 3) meets every Sunday evening beginning at 6:30 pm in the Fellowship Hall and is about experiencing three things . . .

WONDER  *  DISCOVERY  *   PASSION
Wonder:
Every one of us has a desire to marvel. We are looking for something to amaze us, something to incite wonder. There's a generation of students growing up in today's church who somehow miss the wonder of who God really is and believe that He isn't big enough for their experiences.

Discovery:
We are wired for adventure. We are curious from the womb. We want to explore, to see something we have never seen, something that helps us understand new things about ourselves. Many students today never make the discovery of who they are in light of God's truth, and many feel that He isn't relevant to their lives.

Passion:
We long to make a connection, to make a difference, to have intimacy, romance, companionship. Many students today fail to engage in a God-given passion to become involved in the lives of others. They don't feel He is real enough for their relationships.
