Although these classes are divided according to age and grade level, each child's emotional maturity will be taken into account when advancing to the next level.  Parents are  welcome to discuss their child's placement with the Youth & Family Ministry Director.

Preschool at Unity Church of Fort Worth is located in the Sanctuary building across the hall from our Bookstore.  Here, we serve children who are 3 and 4 years old.  We begin the introduction of the God Is, You Are!! Celebrating the Twelve Powers curriculum in Preschool which our teachers present during the gathering circle.  The children are exposed to different virtues in various ways such as: modeling, simple conversation, puppetry, art, stories, games, prayer, and fellowship.  As in all of our classes, parents are encouraged to assist in the classroom if they so desire.
