G.R.O.W.

At G.R.O.W. (Go Reach Our World), we do more than learn God’s Word; we learn to live it out boldly! Using age-appropriate Bible lessons, verse understanding & memorization, fun activities, meaningful conversations, and exciting games, we develop strong relationships with one another and with our Savior.  At GROW, we take the time to help each child understand the Bible verses as they memorize them. We have a class for each stage of the child’s development:

  • Maples (3 years old – Kindergarten):

    • The children discover who God is by examining the commands and promises of God through learning the 10 commandments and learning the fruit of the Spirit.

    • Verses will be memorized in class through games, songs, and activities.

  • Redwoods (Grades 1 – 5):

    • First, the children will answer the question: Who is my neighbor and how do I live in peace with him? The children will learn to respond to conflict God's way by learning and discussing topics/situations/examples from “The Young Peace Maker” by Corlett Sande.

    • Then we will discover how to use God's Word as a lens through which to view the world. Lessons will be drawn from the book "Who is God?" by John Hay’s and David Webb’s. Topics include: What is God like? Why did God create me? Will God meet all my needs? Where am I building my life? How can I know what's true? If God created the world, why isn't it perfect?

    • Verses will be memorized in class through games, songs, and videos.
