One of my favorite things about being a part of The Preschool at Christ the King is experiencing first-hand how God brought each and every teacher to be a part of this amazing program. In addition to our faithful staff of teachers, God has brought several people to serve in our ministry sharing their talents, time and love with our children. Over a year ago, I met with Becca Schwinger at Café Express and asked her if she would possibly consider helping us create a Christmas program of some sort. With full Becca flair, she not only created a ...

One of my favorite things about being a part of The Preschool at Christ the King is experiencing first-hand how God brought each and every teacher to be a part of this amazing program.   Catie Brow is one of those people who makes you feel like you’ve known her forever.

I remember asking, “do you even know them?!” But then the couple smiled and waved back and didn’t seem surprised by our ...

One of my favorite things about being a part of The Preschool at Christ the King is experiencing first-hand how God brought each and every teacher to be a part of this amazing program. I met Ruth Cagle through her sweet daughter Charlotte years ago when I first started working in children’s ministry. Three-year old Charlotte was the most animated little girl with a quiet theatrical presence and engaging personality. She loved to tell stories but you had to listen carefully because she wasn’t going to repeat it. I adored her! Ruth and her ...

  One of my favorite things about being a part of The Preschool at Christ the King, is experiencing first-hand how God brought each and every teacher to be a part of this amazing program. I met Cully Bakht nearly twenty years ago in the early years of our church. She and John were newlyweds and teaching our twin boys in the 2-year-old Sunday School class.
