Covenant Life Kids
NURSERY
Newborn to Potty Trained
Our nursery is designed for kids ages 6 weeks until they are potty trained. Our nursery aged students have their own Bible lesson and fun play time. During the Sunday morning time, they also learn through christian songs and videos. They are provided with a snack and a diaper change, and group interaction led by a child worker who is full trained and background checked. They will bring home a sheet detailing the developments of their stay in nursery, such as feeding times for bottle fed babies and any special requests made by parents.
EARLY CHILDHOOD
Potty Trained – Kindergarten
All children ranging from those who are potty trained and wearing underwear up through kindergarten are invited to a class designed specifically for them. They begin each service with the Elementary school aged children, and after our time of worship they move to a separate learning environment. In this class, they hear a Bible story, memorize a scripture verse, participate in a discussion about the story, create a craft or color a picture to bring home so they can tell their family all about the lesson they learned. The lessons are focused on addressing special needs at their group age, such as certain behaviors and social skills lerning. They also have a time for a snack and group play time.
ELEMENTARY
First – Sixth Grade
Once our praise and worship time is complete, we separate out into 2 groups– Preschool aged and Elementary School aged. The elementary aged kids have a time of learning a Power Verse from the Bible each week. Then they hear an illustrated sermon from various scriptures throughout the Bible. During this time, they are challenged to take a new understanding of Bible by applying that story to their life. After each illustrated sermon, there is a life application time, through guided discussion the students learn how to relate each story of the Bible to their own lives in practical ways. This time is followed by a time of prayer and worship, in which all students are encouraged to come to the altar and pray individually or with a leader as they are learning to grow closer to God. Each lesson includes an activity and game that helps make the story “stick” with the kids. There are also various fun object lessons that help the kids remember these important Biblical truths that are shared with them on a weekly basis.
