“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.”

Our Facility
Our Preschool is located in two rooms in the preschool wing of our church that are only used for our weekday school, with a restroom between the two rooms. Our rooms are arranged into play-learning centers, where children can make choices for individual and small group activities, and we have large colorful rugs for circle time in the classrooms. We have an outdoor playground in an enclosed, shaded area, with safe, modern equipment. We also have a large room that we can go to for indoor large muscle play, when needed. Our Preschool wing is locked during First Friends Preschool hours for safety and education purposes.
