Preschool Ministry: More Than Just Childcare!
The Preschool Ministry at Emmaus provides a safe, fun, and Christ-centered environment for infants through kindergarteners. We are committed to building a strong spiritual foundation by helping children grow in their love and knowledge of Jesus Christ. This ministry is more than just childcare—it’s about teaching biblical truth in a developmentally appropriate way, modeling worship, and laying the groundwork for a lifelong relationship with Jesus.
Safety & Security
Your child’s safety is our priority. We have strategic personnel and security systems in place to ensure a secure environment. If a need arises during your child’s time in Preschool Ministry, we can contact you via text message.

Parent-Child Dedication Service
Twice a year, we hold a Parent-Child Dedication to encourage families, pray for little ones, and as a reminder to the church of the importance of investing in children and families.
At Emmaus, we believe every moment with a child is an opportunity to plant seeds of faith. Our Preschool Ministry is more than childcare—it’s discipleship from the very beginning!
