Early Childhood

The ARK is our Early Childhood Ministry area specially designed for all children birth through kindergarten. The ARK serves as a platform from which we assist parents in helping their children  know, love and follow Jesus. Our unique approach to ministry will offer your preschooler an opportunity to experience the love of Christ through an exciting hands on approach. The ARK is child targeted, fun, and age appropriate. If you have a preschool child, bring them to the ARK to learn more about God's love. The ARK helps build families one kid at a time.

First Time Guests, Where do I go?

Upon your arrival here at the ARK, please bring your entire family to the Early Childhood Welcome Center for initial registration. Because we place such a tremendous amount of importance on your child's safety, we use a photo-based security system called Parent Pager. This state of the art system enables us to make sure that every child is released to their correct guardians without any concerns.

How do I Check in My Child?

After initial registration, your family will be able to check-in through one of our express terminals in just seconds. For your convenience, we have three (3) express terminals located in the Early Childhood Ministry area. Each legal guardian will be issued a permanent check-in/check-out card. Upon scanning your card, you will be able to check your child in and out with ease. After completion, check-in and check-out slips will be printed that MUST be presented to your child's teacher. Again, this state of the art system is in place for the security of your child.

What Happens in My Child's Class?

The staff that serves here on the ARK each weekend are dedicated to meeting the needs of preschoolers. Special thought and care have been put into the facility and curriculum to provide the very best learning environment possible for your child. The ARK allows little ones to learn basic truths directly from God's Word. Each child's class consists of many of the following components - music, games, Bible story, free play, prayer time, snacks, memory verses, and much, much more. Parents, grandparents, and other responsible persons (14 years and older) who have a passion to tell boys and girls about Jesus are encouraged to assist here on the ARK.
