Community Group for Special Needs Children
Written by Terri Burnside
The King's Kids
Proctor Road Campus
10:30 am in Building D
Our team uses the Special Buddies curriculum from Lifeway. It can be taught visually or auditorally. Children are taught one-on-one so the teacher is able to tailor the lesson to their individual needs. The King's Kids join with the other children's classes for big group worship time.
On your first visit, come to the "Welcome" flag by the desk on the first floor of Building D, our Preschool and Children's building. From there, one of our staff or volunteers will register your child., answer your questions and take you and your child to the classroom. 
Director: Sandy Scranton
We offer Community Groups for children during our Sunday Morning Services. We use 252Basics, a strategy designed on three basic Truths modeled by Jesus in Luke 2:52
I need to make the wise choice
I can trust God no matter what
I should treat others the way I want to be treated
We also focus on a core virtue each month. The virtue is supported by the weekly bottom line – the learning aim for the day. Learn more at www.252basics.org
In Children’s Ministry we want to partner with you to help your child discover and embrace a growing relationship with Jesus Christ. We update parents weekly with a fridge door card that gives you the virtue, Bible story, memory verse, the key concept for the week along with a question for them to discuss with you at home. Like Preschool, Children’s THINKS ORANGE!
