They will find him through Story, Bible Memory Activities, Music, Puppets, Prayer, Snacks, and Crafts. Your Children are sure to enjoy Noah's Park!

Dig for ages K -3rd Grade - Dig is a rotational learning setting where the same story or theme is taught for 4 weeks. Each week learners rotate to a different station- the story remains the same, but children encounter it in different ways in each station. Repetition is an important part of Dig! The more different ways children explore a story or concept, the more it is reinforced in their memories. The teachers for Dig are April Black, Craig Wilson, Ben & Laurie Felder, Shari Bolton, Mindy Baskett, Mark Murray & Laurie McNeill. Dig is directed by Kat Wilson. Junior Leaders for 4th & 5th Grade - Junior Leaders is a program designed to help children see their unique strengths & gifts that God has given them and use those to serve others. We work on building leadership skills and allowing them to see ways in which they can be used to make a difference in this world. Jesus is our example as we grow and challenge our Junior Leaders to be shaped into Christlikeness. We will be involved in serving our community at least once a month. Junior Leaders is taught by Pastor Lisa & Jason McNeill.
