Ages 2–6th grade is a formative time for kids: they’re developing critical thinking skills and establishing the knowledge that will guide their faith and their spiritual lives for years to come.

Through age-appropriate study, activities, and community gatherings, we help your children not just gain knowledge, but experience gospel grace and build friendships as a foundation for their young lives.

Preschool Curriculum

Our 2s, 3s, and Pre–K classes use the Jesus Storybook Bible Curriculum. If you do not have a copy of the Jesus Storybook Bible, we encourage you to pick up a free copy from the Children’s Ministry Welcome Desk.

Elementary Curriculum

Our Elementary classes are working their way through the Old Testament using Marty Machowski’s, Gospel Story Curriculum. Follow along at home in the Long Story Short Family Devotional. Free copies are available at the Children’s Ministry Welcome Desk.


* Please note that we follow Fairfax County Public Schools with our class groupings. September 30th is the age cut-off for each class. For example, if your child turns three on October 1, 2024, they remain in the two-year-old Sunday School class for the entire year.

Children’s Ministry Newsletter

Our Children’s Ministry email newsletter is sent once a month, with helpful updates, event registrations, and other ways your family can get connected to our church.
