Even though learning the Bible can sometimes feel challenging, we do our best to make it fun, engaging, and meaningful while helping kids see the importance of hiding God’s Word in their hearts!

Once the school year begins, they’ll dive into a new Book of the Bible (to be decided together). It’s a welcoming space for encouragement, connection, and spiritual growth.
