Our play-based program is dedicated to providing early childhood care and education in a Christian environment and focusing on developing the whole child.

Our Mission

FUMCR Preschool believes that children will grow into who they are created to be with a strong, developmentally appropriate foundation. The environment and curriculum provide support for each child's spiritual, emotional, physical, cognitive, and social development. All children in the program will develop an awareness of God’s love and acceptance through discovery and learning.

FUMCR Preschool supports the mission of FUMCR, “With open hearts and minds, we welcome people for Christ, grow people in Christ, and serve people with Christ.”
