Birth - Age 2

Our littlest people are important to our congregation. Holy Spirit Lutheran Church offers a variety of activities to encourage young ones to use their senses. We provide a sense of family for the children and adults that allows everyone to make connections with others. The children create friendships that grow with them as they grow into elementary school and beyond.


Ages 3 - PreK

Preschool age children love story, and at Holy Spirit Lutheran Church, we share God's love through story, play, and social interactions. The children hear stories at their level that connect with them and give them the understanding of God's love they can then express to others in their unique way.


Kindergarten - Grade 3

Our early and middle elementary students have a variety of interests and ideas, and we use a number of different mediums to reach them where they are in their life. We provide something for them throughout the year.

 

Grades 4, 5, and 6

With our 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students we explore real world problems and how people can make a difference in their small corner of the world. We further explore our Lutheran theology basics, including Martin Luther, and why they are important to their faith journey. We offer Sunday School, fun events, mini lock-ins, service projects, and children's bell choirs.
