St. Paul's Lutheran Child Center serves by nurturing the faith of children in their dear Savior and demonstrating practical ways to live their faith in Christ. Along with Christian values, Bible lessons and prayers, to help a child grow spiritually, St. Paul’s Lutheran Child Center provides activities to help each child grow and develop socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually. Children will have the opportunity to partake in self-initiated or teacher directed activities. Group activities along with individual activities will also be provided.
At St. Paul's Lutheran Child Center we believe children learn through play and not all children learn the same way. Children need to have age appropriate activities presented and taught in a variety of different ways to help each child strive to succeed to the best of their ability.
