Children
|
BIRTH - 2 YEARS
3 YEARS - KINDERGARDEN
1ST - 5TH GRADE
BIRTH
Servant leaders bond with each baby by doing instant activities that help develop their language, listening and visual skills. Each baby is cuddled, prayed over and loved to help them associate God with loving people.
YEAR 1
Beginning at the age of 1 we begin to introduce short Bible stories and playful lessons to learn and enjoy the wonder of God while demonstrating God's love to him or her.
YEAR 2
The 2's enjoy short bible stories and participate in children's worship music. They have fun making crafts that support the Bible themes and explore play in a safe, secure and loving environment.
YEAR 3
The 3's enjoy children's praise music, puppets, Bible stories, game and crafts to continue the basic learning process of who God is. During crafts, each child is given individualized attention to meet their personal needs.
YEAR 4-K
The 4's-Kindergarten join together for dramatic Bible lessons, interactive worship music, puppets, games and prayer. Afterwards, they break into small groups to do activities, crafts and snacks to keep learning the 3 basics of who God is: God made me, God loves me and Jesus want to be my friend forever.
Our 1st -5th grade Kids Ministry has specialy designed classes to ensure your children have a positive learning experience. We place a tremendous emphasis on our Kids Ministry in order to provide quality classes and services for them.
PAL ZONE
This class is disigned for children with unique physical,
mental or emotional needs. Avalible at the 10:45am service during the Summer.
Students
The Student Ministry at Spring of Life exists to lead people to FAITH in Jesus Christ, provide HOPE for the hurting, and to LOVE God and all humanity. We are a generation bent on changing the world one life at a time and we believe God uses all ages to do powerful works that bring glory to God and expand the kingdom of heaven.

ROMANS 10:14-15
"How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"

Grow
We want to encourage everyone who attends Spring of Life to
grow themselves spiritually. We believe that choosing God is just the
first step. The next step is to learn to know God and to become the
kind of person He wants us to be. We offer several ways to help you
do just that.
Come to Spring U, our mid week "spiritual college", and choose from a variety of high quality classes facilitated by gifted teachers that are specifically designed to help you grow, no matter where you are at in your relationship with God. Like on-line learning? Check out SpringWired.com and learn at your own pace at a time that's best for you. Want to get connected with others trying to grow like you? Come early to Spring U and make some new friends by enjoying a casual dinner the hour before classes begin or sign up for one of our fun Interest Group events. Spring U, SpringWired and Interest Groups three ways to help you know others and grow yourself.
