At Methodist Temple, we believe that every child is uniquely and wonderfully made; there are no two children who are just alike. At the same time, we believe that we are each made in the image of a loving God whose Light shines within All. As we’ve learned from our friends on Sesame Street: “We’re different, we’re the same and we’re wonderful!” We strive to emulate the beloved Mr. Rogers who taught us how redeeming and powerful it is to hear even just one neighbor say, “I Love You Just As You Are.”
Our church-wide vision is that we are striving to become a safe and nonjudgmental space in Jesus’ name. In accordance with this vision, Temple Time exists to become a safe and non-judgmental space where toddlers can begin to Connect with God and each other, Share their developing gifts and Explore their budding faith in developmentally appropriate ways.
