Shades Crest Baptist Church

A community of faith formed in Christ, for the Glory of God, and the sake of others

The goal of the SCBC Preschool Ministry is to walk alongside preschoolers and their parents, helping to lay a strong foundation of faith for each child. The desire is for preschoolers to learn simple biblical concepts like God created the world, God loves them and every other person, they can show God’s love to others, and so on.

The SCBC Preschool Ministry serves children from birth to completed kindergarten.

Movement Service

While you attend our worship service, your preschoolers will attend their own, specifically designed service. Our Movement Service allows our preschoolers to enjoy a service that caters to their unique developmental needs. They will participate in worship, hear a Bible lesson, and learn scripture in this dynamic and engaging service.

Connect Groups

Connect Groups for preschoolers are at 10:00 a.m. on Sundays and are designed for children to learn Biblical truths through play, creativity, and engaging lessons. We have classes for each age group, and we provide a snack for all children ages one and older. Younger preschoolers hear a short and simple Bible story with a fun activity. Older preschoolers participate in a more in-depth Bible lesson with age-appropriate activities.

Preschoolers Of Purpose (POP)

On Wednesdays at 6:00 p.m., adults remain in the Fellowship Hall for Bible study, and preschoolers meet for POP. During this time, they participate in music time, Bible story time, and group activities that help them connect with the lesson.

 

Preschool Check-In
We care about every child who enters the Shades Crest preschool hall, and their safety is a top priority for us. When you arrive with your preschooler(s), you will check-in each child electronically—a quick and simple process. During check-in you will receive a tag for your child to wear while they are in our care, and a pick-up tag for you to bring when it is time to pick up your children. Your child’s tag will include your phone number, so we can text you should we need you for any reason. We look forward to serving your family!
