STAR Ministry

Little STAR is a "Special Time Activity Room" that serves many purposes for children, ages 4-12.  It is a place where:

  • a transition can occur for a new family (or visitor) who has a child with special needs
  • we can get to know the child and how to best meet his or her needs
  • respite care for children is provided (some children with special needs attend Sunday School during one service but need some down time for the other)
  • shadow training and support is provided

It's also designed to be a resource for children who are attending Sunday School but may need a sensory break or other support.

Middle STAR is class for Teens and Pre-Teens with special needs, ages 12-16.  This is a Sunday School class that provides a small intimate environment with the awareness of sensory integration.  We use the TEACCH method to include worship, bible study, activities, prayer, and social interaction. We meet during the 11:00 hour in room 765.

Adult STAR is a Connect Group for adults with special needs.  This class meets Sunday mornings lead by Tim Francis.  We  provide a safe, loving, and fun environment.  We worship in song and study, God's word, and teaching practical applications.  It also provides a social environment to connect, make friends, and engage to the best of all abilities.  We meet during the 11:00 hour in room 764.
