I can openly teach my little ones about God’s love. I love the people here and their belief in God.

It’s easy to teach my little ones about a Christian Worldview. Preschoolers are so open minded and like littles sponges. We incorporate it in play, Bible stories, songs, and our daily routine.

We can openly pray for each other and talk about what God means to us.

That I love each of them unconditionally.
