Hello, Parents! Here are all the details for our December Sunday Morning Curriculum and what the children will be learning.
Preschool: This Christmas season, we are teaching your preschoolers about the best gift ever—Jesus! Jesus makes the way for us to have a forever friendship with God and to know that God is always with us. God sent an angel to Mary and another angel to Joseph to tell them they would each play a part in bringing His Son, Jesus, into the world. When Mary and Joseph heard the good news that Jesus would be born, they also received strength and encouragement because God would be with them through everything.
God gives us the same strength and encouragement, even when we face difficult situations, because He is with us and we are not alone. Preschoolers can know that God is with them, too, and He gives them strength to believe what He says and to do what He tells them to do.
