We have some very talented Lighthouse Kids!
Our Lighthouse Kids learn the stories of the Bible while acting them out and they have so much fun doing it!
They do such a good job a lot of adults watch the videos too, and not just their families!
We love to bring the Bible to life with them and we all have a great time doing it.

Early Childhood Education Is Important….
There has been a lot said about starting our children early in education. Even basics like creative play and interaction with others is often best learned in a school environment.“The wisest possible path to genuine public education ‘reform’ is this: Invest early to give children the best possible start in school and in life.” ~ Jerry Scarborough, Superintendent of Schools of Suwannee County, Florida
