It’s never too early to introduce your child to the love of Jesus. Long before they can write their names or recite the alphabet, these little ones can take their first steps in a lifelong journey of faith. The preschool ministry is reflective of our desire to join with you, their parents and church family, to ignite their desire for the Lord.
One of the ways we teach our preschool children about the love of Jesus is by learning the catechism together. You can join us in this endeavor by encouraging your children to practice them at home!
Another way we teach our preschool children about the love of Jesus is by singing his praises! See below for choir age groups and times. Email Christy Young with questions.
Wednesdays (starting August 24), 6:15-7:30pm
On Wednesday nights, children will broaden their knowledge of Christ's love for them through music by learning great hymns of the faith, memorizing scripture, recognizing music symbols and notes, and playing musical instruments.
Wednesday night choir offerings for our early childhood age groups include the Cherub Choir (for Pre-K and JK children who have turned 3 by January 1, 2022) and the Music Makers (for Senior Kindergarteners and 1st graders).
Through Bible teaching and nurturing relationships, we seek to help children in elementary school develop a solid Christian worldview to guide them through the coming years.
Connect is BACK this semester! Register your 2nd-5th grader to join us on Wednesday evenings beginning August 24 to get connected to the church, awesome leaders, other kids their age, and God’s Word. Each week we'll have games in the gym, singing, and a Bible lesson. Drop-off is at 6:15pm in the Recreation Gym Lobby, and pick-up is at 7:30pm in the PDS lobby.
The elementary Sunday School curriculum is part of a 1st-12th grade curriculum aimed to assist families in the discipleship process by providing outlines of Sunday School lessons as well as age-appropriate discussion questions. The lessons are presented through games, skits, Bible reading and age-appropriate activities.
Contact Lucy Stevens at or 901-531-6178 with questions.

Our mission is to be a safe place where every child and parent sees the love of God in the people who care for them, causing all to have a greater desire to know Him and serve in His church.
All children are a gift from the Lord, “fearfully and wonderfully made” (Psalm 139:14). Our SHINE special needs ministry is designed to share the good news of Christ’s love with those who may have unique learning or physical challenges.
Our Shine Sunday School class meets in N101 during the 9:45am Sunday School hour and 11:00am church hour. All ages and disabilities are welcome!
We also offer a Shine Shadow program, which provides the opportunity for students with special needs to remain with their peers in appropriate grade levels while supporting Biblical differentiated learning.
