Sunday School
Promiseland
Our mission in Promiseland is to work as a team with families to help children LEARN Biblical truths, GROW in faith and LIVE OUT their faith in the community.
Promiseland is our children’s ministry program where children from age three (3) to Grade 5 learn about God’s truth! We strive to provide a safe environment for your children where they will be cared for by wonderful volunteer teachers and enthusiastic parent helpers.
After our first worship time, children come to Promiseland. We offer the following classes:
Nursery
A staffed nursery is available for newborns up to age three. Our nursery is provided from the beginning to the end of the service.
Preschool
Our Preschool class includes children aged three, four and five year olds not yet in Kindergarten. We currently use the Hands-On Bible curriculum as the teaching material for this class.
Kindergarten to Grade 5
Large Group Session
After being dismissed from the service, our Kindergarten to Grade Five children meet for a large group session prior to going to their workshops. During this time, we sing praise songs to God, collect our offering for our current service project, and highlight children’s birthdays.
Workshop Rotation
After the large group session, children move with their care leaders to their workshop for that Sunday. Children focus on the same Bible story for 4 to 5 weeks and learn the key themes by engaging in interactive and diverse workshops, including drama, art, cooking, cinema and games.
