Weekend Services
Noah's Ark is a great place for children birth through Kindergarten. Idential programs are provided at all services at our Rockrimmon and Woodmen Heights Campus. We firmly believe no child is too young to experience the love of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Our purpose is to partner with families in the Christian education of their children by laying a spiritual foundation during the first five years of a child's development. Our Kindergarten children have the opportunity to hide God's word in their heart as they memorize weekly Bible verses. Spend some time with us! We would love to show you around.
Noah's Ark - Early Childhood Curriculum
Why should you invest in teaching preschoolers about God?
Many people believe that playing with young kids is enough and that taking the time to teach, create games, or worship is too much trouble for too few results. These children are just three or four. They have such small attention spans. They can’t learn about God. Right?
Wrong! Research shows that the years from birth to age five are the most impressionable time of a person’s life. It is during these young years that values, beliefs, and behaviors are formed which will often stick with a person for the rest of his or her life. The preschool years are crucial for developing a child’s spiritual foundation. It is also during this time that parents and guardians are looking for guidance and help in their child’s spiritual development. Families reach out to the church for support, so when young children are taught biblical truths, it has a direct influence on the entire family’s spiritual growth.
So the question is not: “Why should you invest in teaching preschoolers about God?” Rather, it is: “Why wouldn’t you?”
This curriculum teaches the key scriptural truths and lays the spiritual foundation a young person needs in order to enter into a personal relationship with Jesus.

Child Dedication
Woodmen Valley Chapel observes parent commitment and child dedication. This is a special time when parents thank God for the loan of a precious new life and pledge themselves to follow the leadership of Jesus in the development of their child's life.
Child dedication is an opportunity to publicly convenant with God to train up your children in cooperation with God's intention. As a church family, we want to stand with you, pray with you as parents and support and encourage you along the way.
To schedule your child for dedication, please contact Karen Rudicil, Early Childhood Director at krudicil@woodmenvalley.org.
