SUNDAY SCHOOL & WORSHIP

9:30 to 10:30 a.m. -- Sunday School

10:45 a.m.                -- Worship Service

Preschool: Infants thru 4 years old

Westgate’s Preschool Ministry is more than just childcare. Each class focuses on reinforcing the Biblical foundations parents provide at home for their babies, toddlers and preschoolers. It is our belief that parents are the primary faith trainers of their children and what we do at Westgate is build upon the home ministries and equip parents to be the faith-trainers God has called them to be. Sunday School classes, Awana Puggles and Cubbies, and Extended Session (during morning worship services for birth through four years old) are available for our preschoolers.

THE GOSPEL PROJECT -- (Kdg-4th Grade) 

FALL PROGRAM - The Gospel Project is our Sunday School program for Children K-6th grades. It takes place every Sunday starting at 9:30am.

• This is a 3-year curriculum that takes our children through the entire Bible with the thread of Jesus Christ and salvation through Him studied in every lesson.  
• Teaches children how to apply Bible concepts and stories to their everyday lives
• Faith Talk suggestions “take-home” each week
• This also will develop a sound foundation in the Bible for all of our children - no matter what age - the curriculum advances with them.
