Why are we considering opening a daycare?
• Families in Stafford County are projected to grow by more than 13% in the next four years (source:MissionInsite).
• Military and government families are especially in need of reliable, affordable childcare as remote work opportunities decrease.
• A daycare ministry allows us to respond to this need while living out our calling to be a light in the community.

What will we be providing?
• Full-time care plus before- and after-care options for preschool students
• Open weekdays, 7:00 AM – 6:00 PM
• Children ages 6 weeks through Pre-K
• Bright, renovated spaces in the basement with access to the playground, gym, and nursery rooms
• Professional staff providing safe, Christ-centered care

Why is this important?
• Builds on the strong reputation of Ebenezer Preschool
• Provides long-term connections with families in our community
• Helps offset church operating costs, making better use of underutilized space during the week
• Supports our mission of discipleship, starting with the youngest in our community

When is this going to happen?
• No major changes until 2026; target opening will be in the fall of 2026
• Hiring key staff and preparing facilities will begin in the new year

How can I learn more?
• Information sessions scheduled for October 12 (11:30 AM) and October 14 (7:00 PM)
