Pre-K PlansThis group does not rotate like
the other groups (they have different activities)
The group leader also serves as the teacher
The teacher can combine VBS material and a Pre-K rotation.

Awards are given on the basis of spiritual accomplishment
Promotion and follow-up are essential to success
Volunteers can work toward being comfortable sharing Christ with children
