Open Arms’ program of childcare and early childhood education includes; teaching, storytelling, sharing, music, playing, and chapel in an informal, home-like environment. We believe that hearing Bible stories is an important part of the development of a child because of what it teaches about God’s love for the world, especially shown in Jesus Christ. We also believe that a child’s knowledge of the love and acceptance of God in Christ is the best way of developing each child's knowledge unique personality, promoting individuality and a positive self-image both in individual and group situations.
