Families
All families are welcome to grow in faith at Elim!

Young Children: Preschool-Age
At Elim we celebrate that children already know and experience God.  To encourage the faith journey of younger people, we try to create age-appropriate space and opportunities as well as cross-generational relationships.  Whole-child formation is possible by taking advantage of a variety of opportunities, and all children are welcome to participate at their own pace.  Check out our calendar and sign up for our e-newsletter to keep up with our current events. Please also see Little Shepherd for our preschool schedule and curriculum.
