Sunday Discipleship
We offer classes for all ages to deepen their life with God and others. ‘Sunday School’ is the traditional term for this, but we want to emphasize that this isn’t so much about information as it is transformation. We want all people to learn how to live and love like Jesus. So while head knowledge is a key component of these offerings, the goal is to get it into the heart. Jesus himself makes this point, when he says:
“These words I speak to you are not incidental additions to your life, homeowner improvements to your standard of living. They are foundational words, words to build a life on. If you work these words into your life, you are like a smart carpenter who built his house on solid rock. Rain poured down, the river flooded, a tornado hit—but nothing moved that house. It was fixed to the rock.” ‐ Matthew 7:24‐25 (The Message)
See “What to Expect” for more details. Sunday Discipleship is offered nearly every Sunday from Labor Day to Memorial Day.
Preschool (ages 3-5)The youngest at Heartland are provided a safe and loving environment to learn about God with a well-experienced teacher. Using the Little Lambs curriculum, they enjoy guided play, fun crafts, simple stories, and beloved rituals. They are also introduced to the basic stories of our faith through colorful God Loves Me Storybooks. The preschool children are led by Kathy Summers.

Elementary (K-5th)During the 11:00 hour we will take kids on a learning adventure, using One Room Sunday School Curriculum. The activities will vary from week to week based on a Bible story - learning more about God and His people (including us). Other activities may include memorizing books of the Bible through song and BOB Buckets (put book names in order with snap together blocks), practicing memory verses, completing worksheets, playing games and making crafts. Elementary aged students are led by Sharon Howe each week.
