Weekday Ministry Mission Statement

We believe that every child should experience the unconditional love of Jesus Christ through our actions and words.

We believe that every child should be provided with age appropriate learning experiences so that they may develop to their fullest potential physically, mentally, emotionally, socially and spiritually.

We believe that our church, our Weekday program, and our parents should work as a team to enable each child to develop his/her fullest potential.


Our Preschool Program & Curriculum

Weekday Ministry Preschool & Kindergarten is designated a Program of Excellence for Young Children by the United Methodist Preschool Association of the North Georgia Conference.  Our dedicated and well-trained staff live into God’s call to serve God’s children.  We want each child to enjoy the learning process and know they are loved. Our teacher-generated curriculum provides opportunities to foster growth and development and equip our students on their educational journey.  The curriculum at Weekday begins in the Toddler program and builds towards our Kindergarten program through play and hands on activities. Our desire is to create a lifelong love of learning that helps them grow not only academically, but also in spirit.

Our program features:

  • Zoo-phonics

  • Specials includes music, movement, and Spanish

  • Age appropriate units

  • Weekly Chapel

  • Cooperative Mission outreach projects

  • In-house special events and field trips

  • State-of-the-art playground

  • Individual approach

  • Well-trained staff required to complete professional development each year including CPR and Safe Sanctuary certifications
