image description

SOCIAL TIME: 20 minutes

Providing Time for Fun Interaction

Social Time is designed to introduce children to the day’s topic in a setting that gives them individualized attention from the small group leader and plenty of interaction with a small group of peers.

image description

LARGE GROUP: 20 minutes

Communicating God's Truth in Engaging Ways

Large Group is designed to engage children through worship in a large group setting. Storytelling, prayer, and an innovative approach to the Bible story are always a part of this interactive time.

SMALL GROUPS: 20 minutes

Creating a Safe Place to Connect

Small Groups are designed to help children understand how the day’s topic applies to them. They’ll discuss real-life experiences, interact with a close-knit group of peers, and participate in a variety of activities that appeal to different learning styles. Life application and memory verse activities, as well as prayer, are always a part of this hands-on time.
