Preschool (Birth to Pre-K)
FIRST KIDSINTRODUCTION
Preschoolers live in a world of discovery. Each day is an opportunity to grow and learn. As they grow physically, emotionally, socially, and intellectually, our prayer is that they also are growing spiritually.
At The Woodlands First Baptist Church we are helping preschoolers to worship God, grow in faith, serve others, and live for Jesus. Each week, preschoolers will encounter the love of Jesus in a loving, safe, and secure environment. Our excellent staff of volunteers makes sure that each child is cared for, loved, and most importantly, has the opportunity to hear about Christ’s love.
Your child’s safety is our top priority. That’s why we utilize safe check in and check out procedures with matching child name tags and parent pick up receipts, and every staff member and volunteer is background checked annually. Additionally, our paid staff is CPR/First Aid Certified, and we provide camera recordings throughout the building. On Sunday mornings, we also have a police officer assigned to our building. Our preschoolers enjoy saying “hi” to them each week! If you have any questions about our safety protocol, please do not hesitate to reach out to our Preschool Ministry team.
SUNDAY MORNINGS
On Sunday mornings, preschoolers will have the opportunity to experience two great hours of programming, so that parents may attend both worship and an adult small group. In preschool worship, kids will sing, dance, celebrate and worship as they learn about God’s great love. In small groups, preschoolers will be taught by our dedicated volunteers who focus on relationships, learning, and fun! We currently utilize the Gospel Project curriculum from Lifeway which is an engaging program that walks kids through the Bible in chronological order. You’ll be surprised how much your preschooler will learn about God and His Word!

Registration is limited so families are encouraged to register early to secure their child’s spot.
MOPS (2023-2024)
MOPS is a gathering of mothers that encourages and equips moms of young children to realize their potential as mothers, women, and leaders in relationship with Jesus and in partnership with our church.
