Our congregation will be invited to join us in a dynamic archival presentation with photos and memories from years past, former Lakewood pastors speaking, and a celebration of the church past, present, and future. Adult tickets are $12. Dinner and a Lakewood 50th celebration Christmas ornament (one per family) is included with ticket purchase. Kids eat for free, but it is important that you please register them through the Childcare form below. We want to make sure we have enough food for everyone! Kids will have a separate meal and activities planned by our Children’s ministry. Please purchase your tickets and register family members by October 18th, as tickets are limited. If you would like to contribute photos to the slideshow, there are two ways to do so. You can upload digital copies through the link in this email or you may bring up to 5 hard copy images to be scanned in the church office. Please submit your photos by Sunday, October 18th. We hope you can join us as we celebrate this milestone in the life of our church!

This is why we have what is best described as a multi-sensory developmental curriculum. Children develop in a certain, predictable way. Within this general pattern, each child has his/her own unique pattern and timing of growth, personality, learning style, and family background. Therefore, the curriculum must be both developmentally and individually appropriate. Educational research tells us that play is the natural way that children learn. Real learning takes place as children interact with their environment, as they actively explore materials and interact with other children and adults. Children learn with their whole bodies through concrete, play-oriented activities. The goal of education is to produce thinkers who can think both creatively and critically. Thinking skills are learned through active involvement with the environment beginning at a very early age. When children manipulate objects, they also learn to manipulate ideas, words, and concepts.[/nectar_responsive_text][/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h5″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”Our Environment”][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default”]Our classroom environments are set up in such a way that the children learn naturally as they interact with them. Our classrooms are filled with engaging materials that spark curiosity—manipulatives, books, art supplies, blocks, dramatic play props, and discovery tools. As the child plays with and explores these things, many new concepts and skills will be learned and practiced. These items are changed often so children are exposed to new materials and ideas.  Fostering a love of reading is a goal of our program. We do this by reading aloud often and sharing a variety of genres with the children. Research shows that reading to children is the most essential factor in kindergarten readiness. Classrooms are rich with books, meaningful print, and hands-on opportunities to explore letters, sounds, print concepts, reading, and writing. We recognize that children “reading” a story from the pictures and from memory are very important pre-reading skills, and that much repetition is needed to master these skills.[/nectar_responsive_text][/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h5″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”Our Curriculum”][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default”]Our curriculum is designed to meet the needs of the whole child. We work on all areas of development: social, emotional, physical, intellectual, creative, and spiritual. It is important to provide a balanced program so children develop in all areas. (A lag in physical development, for example, can cause a lag in learning to read.) Children are accepted just as they are. We don’t expect them to learn or behave in unison—some are eager to write, others aren’t; some can read, most cannot; some are outgoing, others quiet. With calm encouragement and developmentally appropriate expectations, each child is free to grow at their own pace. A 2-year-old is allowed to be 2; a 4-year-old isn’t expected to act 6 years old. Our message is simple and consistent: “God made you, you are very special, and I like you just the way you are.” When children hear and believe that, they’re set up to thrive.[/nectar_responsive_text][/toggle][/toggles][/vc_column][vc_column left_padding_desktop=”6%” left_padding_tablet=”0″ flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default”

This is why we have what is best described as a multi-sensory developmental curriculum. Children develop in a certain, predictable way. Within this general pattern, each child has his/her own unique pattern and timing of growth, personality, learning style, and family background. Therefore the curriculum must be both developmentally and individually appropriate. Educational research tells us that play is the natural way that children learn. Real learning takes place as children interact with their environment, as they actively explore materials and interact with other children and adults. Children learn with their whole bodies through concrete, play oriented activities. The goal of education is to produce thinkers who can think both creatively and critically. Thinking skills are learned through active involvement with the environment beginning at a very early age. When children manipulate objects, they also learn to manipulate ideas, words, and concepts.[/nectar_responsive_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”padding-5-percent” column_padding_phone=”padding-4-percent” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”left” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color=”#3abca1″ background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”20px” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”7/12″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in-from-left” animation_easing=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default” text_color=”#ffffff” font_size_desktop=”45px” font_line_height=”1.1″ font_size_phone=”36px”] ## Our Environment and Curriculum [/nectar_responsive_text][divider line_type=”Full Width Line” line_thickness=”1″ divider_color=”white” custom_height=”20px”][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default”]Our classroom environments are set up in such a way that the children learn naturally as they interact with it. Our classrooms are filled with engaging materials that spark curiosity—manipulatives, books, art supplies, blocks, dramatic play props, and discovery tools. As the child plays with and explores these things, many new concepts and skills will be learned and practiced. These items are changed often so children are exposed to new materials and ideas.  Fostering a love of reading is a goal of our program. We do this by reading aloud often and sharing a variety of genres with the children. Research shows that reading to children is the most essential factor in kindergarten readiness. Classrooms are rich with books, meaningful print, and hands-on opportunities to explore letters, sounds, print concepts, reading, and writing. We recognize that children “reading” a story from the pictures and from memory are very important pre-reading skills, and that much repetition is needed to master these skills. Our curriculum is designed to meet the needs of the whole child. We work on all areas of development: social, emotional, physical, intellectual, creative, and spiritual. It is important to provide a balanced program so children develop in all areas. (A lag in physical development, for example, can cause a lag in learning to read.) Children are accepted just as they are. We don’t expect them to learn or behave in unison—some are eager to write, others aren’t; some can read, most cannot; some are outgoing, others quiet. With calm encouragement and developmentally appropriate expectations, each child is free to grow at their own pace. A two-year-old is allowed to be two; a four-year-old isn’t expected to act six. Our message is simple and consistent: “God made you, you are very special, and I like you just the way you are.” When children hear and believe that, they’re set up to thrive.[/nectar_responsive_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”20px” equal_height=”yes”

Offering to send some money, even if it’s less than your usual payment, may increase their willingness to cooperate. For federal student loans, you can choose to forbear (with interest accrual) or defer (interest doesn’t accrue on subsidized federal loans) your loan payments. Use this [questionnaire](https://borrowers.bysavi.com/) for student loans to explore available options. If you’re currently making extra payments on debts and have less than one to two months’ worth of expenses in an emergency fund, consider pausing extra payments temporarily and resuming them once your situation stabilizes. If possible, enroll in [health insurance](https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/18/how-to-find-health-care-coverage-if-youve-lost-your-job.html).

We believe in the one, true, holy and living God; one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Creator of all that is seen and unseen. We believe Jesus Christ is fully human and fully divine. We believe Jesus died for our sins and that on the cross, our sins were forgiven. We believe that Jesus died and that on the third day he rose from the dead, opening the way for us to be raised to new life. We believe that “since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; they are now justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a sacrifice of atonement by his blood, effective through faith.” (Romans 3:23–25). One day Christ will return and those who believe in him will enjoy his presence eternally. We believe in the Holy Spirit who proceeds from and is one being with the Father and the Son. The Holy Spirit leads people into a relationship with Christ. He comforts, sustains, empowers, and teaches so that we become more and more like Christ. We believe the church “is a community of true believers under the Lordship of Christ. It is the redemptive fellowship in which the Word of God is preached by persons divinely called and the sacraments are duly administered according to Christ’s own appointment.” (Global Methodist Church Book of Doctrines & Discipline, Article 308) At Lakewood Methodist Church, our mission is people guiding people into a lifestyle centered around Jesus.[/nectar_responsive_text][/toggle][toggle color=”Default” heading_tag=”h5″ heading_tag_functionality=”default” title=”God”][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default”]God is the Creator of the universe and everything in it.
