Nursery to PreK

What if each child before the age of five knows that:

God made me (Psalm 139:13-14)
God loves me (Romans 8:38-39)
Jesus wants to be my friend (John 3:16)

Each month there is a Bottom Line (key concept), a Key Question for the month, a Memory Verse, and a Bible Story Focus. The Bible Story Focus changes weekly and reinforces the Bottom Line. The Bible Story Focus helps to shape the week’s concept.

Crawlers -“The Nursery”- Birth to Age 2 1/2

Located downstairs between the Gathering Center and the Ministry Center room 101, the volunteers in the Nursery, through works and actions, teach each baby about God, the Creator, and his Son, Jesus. Current curriculum teaches four topics: God made everything, God made families, God made me, and Baby Jesus.

Volunteers are always needed! No experience is required. Just a love of God, of Jesus, and of Kids!
If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Stacie Mayes at (970) 456-2129 or email. Thank you.

Campers – Age 2 1/2 to 3

Located upstairs in Room 202, the volunteers in the Camper class are implementing the “First Look” curriculum to build the foundation of your child’s relationship with God and Jesus. They use role play, activity sheets, games, and videos. Make sure you get your weekly First Look Card to continue the discussion at home!

Hikers – Age 4 to 5

Located upstairs in Room 203, the volunteers in the Hiker class are implementing the “First Look” curriculum to build the foundation of your child’s relationship with God and Jesus. They use role play, activity sheets, games, and videos. Make sure you get your weekly First Look Card to continue the discussion at home.

Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

School Age

Volunteers are implementing the “252 Basics” curriculum to help your child grow in their relationship with Jesus. The curriculum is based on three basic principles. Wisdom, faith, and friendship. Associated with those principles are three truths:

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

The story of God reveals the character of God. That’s why 252 Basics is organized around key Bible stories that help kids discover Jesus and reflect His character to the world around them. Every month presents a new Life App to help children discover more about God’s character. And each Life App is unpacked through a weekly Bottom Line—a short phrase so easy to remember that it can be reinforced at home throughout the week.

252 Basics emphasizes the importance of loving and serving others throughout the year as children learn to live out God’s character through the monthly Life Apps.

Each week, your child will be welcomed by a loving volunteer in the classroom. For the first 20 minutes of class, the students and leader engage in a social time that includes catching up on the week, team building, and engaging games or activities that preview the daily lesson. Then, all school age children come together in the Kid Mountain Room for fun and engaging worship, Bible verse introduction or reinforcement, Bottom Line introduction, Bible Story time, and real life application of the daily lesson. Finally, children go back to their grade appropriate classrooms for Small Group time. This time is filled with application games, or activities to reinforce the daily lesson, Bible verse review, and prayer.

. . . AND JESUS GREW IN WISDOM AND STATURE AND FAVOR WITH GOD AND MAN. LUKE 2:52
