Your trusted Source for Preschool for 60 years, Just got bigger!
Excellence in Early Childhood Education Nativity Lutheran Church and Preschool is a vibrant and growing family of brothers and sisters in Christ, where we experience and celebrate God's love in our worship, education, fellowship, and service.
We began in 1962 as a mission of the American Lutheran Church.
Our first worship service was held on December 23, 1962; hence the name, Nativity.
We were granted our charter in April, 1963. We've offered a high-quality preschool program since August of 1965.
We're glad to have you part of our family where God's love is at home.
