ELEMENTARY MILESTONES

Milestone Three: Gospel Foundations
 Grades 1-5
Teaching Your Child to Grow in the Grace and Knowledge of Jesus 
An important milestone in the life of every person is salvation and baptism.
A decision point is often reached between the ages of 7 and 11. This decision may also occur later in life. Between Milestone 2 and Milestone 3, we partner with and equip parents to lead their kids toward a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, which leads toward salvation. To make this milestone memorable and special, families can include a Spiritual Birthday which focuses on the child’s date of salvation and a family celebration following the child’s baptism event. This seminar is required before a child is baptized and will be offered four times a year, in the fall, winter, spring, and summer. Parents are encouraged to invite family, friends, and those who spiritually influence the child to the baptism event.
Milestone Four: Preparing for Adolescence
Grades 4-5
Preparing Your Child to Embrace their Identity in Christ as a Teenager
It is important to help children prepare spiritually, emotionally, and physically for adolescence. Between the ages of 10 and 12, we begin to introduce these concepts to kids as they attend church ministries and activities. We equip parents to intentionally prepare their children to enter the teen years.
