There are many opportunities for spiritual development available to your child here at Dorrisville
Baptist
Church. We are dedicated to offering the best possible environment, leadership and Bible teaching for preschool (bed babies through kindergarten) and school-aged (grades 1-6) children. Our aim is that every experience a child has here at DBC will move him/her toward spiritual, mental, and physical maturity. We view our work with children as a ministry to the child and also to the family.
Our Sunday School program, on Sundays at 9:00 a.m.are divided by age and development within the preschool area. The Preschool divisions are Bed Babies/Crawlers/Walkers/Toddlers, 2 & 3-year-olds, 4-year-olds, and kindergargen. Class sizes are kept small, for security as well as for better teacher/child relationships. In the children's area classes are divided by school grade. In addition to Sunday School, Special Events, such as parties, field trips, and service projects are scheduled from time to time in our Children's division. Any activity which requires your child to leave the DBC grounds also requires that we have a current permission slip on file.
During the school year Children's Choir meets from 6:15 - 7:00 on Sunday afternoons. Before children's choir, on Sunday evenings at 5:15, during the school year, we have Bible Drills for children, grades 1-6. They memorize scripture, learn the books of the Bible and compete on the local, associational, and state level for awards. They work during the school year on their memorization and Bible skills in preparation for their competitions in April.
