I've taught Sunday School at Woodmen Valley Chapel in their Kid's Cove Ministry. I continued each year to move with the kids as they graduate and move to the next grade. I taught 1st thought 5th grade. It's a blessing to see kids come to Christ at such a young age and watch their maturity continue to grow in Christ!
