Our Primary purpose is best explained by Jesus’ words in Matthew 19:14 where he said: “Let the little children come tom me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” Sandia Mountain Church of the Nazarene reaches out to our community with Christ’s love, by providing a safe, nurturing environment where godly foundations are laid. We believe that through caring, nurturing teachers and under a safe, stable environment, the educational, physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs of children from infancy to age 12 will be met.
We believe that most of a child’s learning takes place through play and hands-on activities. We believe that learning can also be extended through the appropriate use of the A Beka program. We believe that children need choices. We believe that children learn best when they feel safe. We believe that, by setting rules and limits that are clear and consistent, we can help children feel secure and develop the confidence to learn through exploration. We believe that children learn best from staff who are warm, nurturing, and growing in knowledge of Early Childhood Education and Developmentally Appropriate Practices. We believe that our staff takes advantage of those teachable moments to encourage exploration, problem solving, and promote social and emotional development.
Mission Albuquerque is a non-profit organization, established in 1999 to bring hope to a community in need, helping people turn the corner from a place of need to a place of service to others. We do this by 1) Meeting people at their point of need (meeting real and felt needs), 2) Providing education and training in areas of need to bring individuals to a place of health and wholeness, and 3) Empowering people to care for and meet the needs of others.
