Jesus Jumpers

 

Sunday Mornings (8:45 and 10:30) Jump Start

Jump Start is a time designed for preschool (potty-trained 3 year olds) through kindergartners to encounter God through prayer, Bible stories, crafts, music, play, movement and scripture.
The curriculum is designed to empower parents to be Spiritual leaders in their children's lives by sending home a family devotion called Home Front.

What to Expect!

Small Groups focused on Relationships! – Christ told his disciples to let the children come to Him. He wanted to show them love by sitting with them and getting to know them. Jump Start small groups are focused on building relationships. We will play games and do crafts with the children. But the ultimate goal is showing them the love of Christ through relationship.


Large Group Worship! – Corporate worship is an important part of a growing relationship with Christ. We are called to come together and worship our Father in Heaven. Jump Start offers corporate worship that teaches the children prayer, scripture, and songs of praise.


Consistency! – Jump Start only introduces one Biblical Truth per morning. Crafts, games, storytelling, puppets, music, motions, and small group discussion will all focus on the one Biblical Truth. Children may attend both sessions, as they will be unique.  They do not need to be picked up between sessions.

Sunday Morning Sneak Peek!

Drop your child off in a classroom to begin exploring the Biblical Truth with a small group of friends. After being introduced to the Biblical Truth, children will join together in the Tree House for a time of corporate worship that includes songs, motions, prayer, the Bible story (Biblical Truth), puppets, and much more. Returning to their classrooms, children will respond to what they just learned about God through creative expressions of art and games. Classroom guides close each session with a blessing on every child.

Classrooms are assigned by age. Visitors will be given class assignments upon registering on Parent Pager. Please note that your first few weeks with us are spent in an age appropriate visitor class. After your child has been with us several times, he/she may be moved to a different class to keep classes consistent. We ask that you commit to consistent attendance to help your child as they grow and learn through Jump Start.

Three Year Olds will be in Rooms G118 and G120.

Four Year Olds will be in Rooms G116, G121, and G123.

Kindergarteners will be in Rooms G125, G127 and G129.

Check In and Out Process

All children attending Jump Start must be checked in by a parent using Parent Pager located in reception area of Grace Building.  Parents must check out their child using Parent Pager before collecting their child.  Please be aware that the Reign Forest closes promptly at noon on Sundays, so please be on time to pick up your child.  Also, we ask that you try not to pick up your child early since it disrupts the classroom time.

Parents, You are Vital!
