EARLY LEARNING CENTER

The Colts Neck Reformed Church Early Learning Center was founded in 1970 as the Colts Neck Reformed Church Nursery School and became the Colts Neck Reformed Church Early Learning Center in 2021 to reflect its focus on educating young children.  It is a New Jersey licensed, non-profit, cooperative school committed to Christian values. Children of all faiths and races are welcomed and embraced. Our aim is to nurture self-confidence, and to guide children in the joy of discovery and learning. The daily schedule is flexible and programs are developed to provide different opportunities for socialization and independence based on the children's ages and, more importantly, their developmental stages. The school uses the award-winning Creative Curriculum® for Preschool/Kindergarten which is a comprehensive, research-based curriculum that features exploration and discovery as a way of learning, enabling children to develop confidence, creativity, and lifelong critical thinking skills.

MISSION AND OUTREACH

God's gift of salvation comes to expression in our community of faith in many ways. Engaging in mission and outreach are two expressions of our salvation life. We feel God's call to serve the needs of others. We serve others by providing financial support for benevolent causes, regular volunteering, and special mission opportunities. We seek to make an impact in our local community, in the wider regional area, nationally, and internationally. We would love to help you find ways to lend your gifts to God's work. 



MUSIC MINISTRY

In both the Old and New Testaments, music is mentioned many times as a way to express our praise to God. We embrace that with our whole heart, mind, soul and strength at the Colts Neck Reformed Church! Whether you like to make music through singing in a choir, ringing handbells, playing an instrument, or lifting your voice on the hymns on Sunday mornings, there are opportunities for all ages to grow in your faith through music. And if your passion is art or drama, there are many ways to use your gifts to glorify God. Psalm 95:1 says, "O come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!"

CHRISTIAN EDUCATION

The Colts Neck Reformed Church has a motto which includes the words, "Nurture our Faith: Life-long Learning". Our commitment to this ideal brings us to offer Christian Education to all people who seek to know God, to love Jesus, and to be inspired by the Holy Spirit through the Bible. For children, we offer Church School for three-years-old through seventh grade, Confirmation classes for eighth grade and older, Children at the Lord's Table for those taking communion for the first time, and summer Sunday activities. We offer Bible Studies on many different days and times for members and non-members alike. Speakers and special classes are offered during Discovery Hour and occasionally at other times. Come, join in, and learn what God has to say to you and your family!

    YOUTH

    Colts Neck Reformed Church is committed to the wholehearted formation of every person who is present in our community, not the least of which are our youth! We offer a wide range of youth programming. This includes Sunday School for those in pre-school through seventh grade, confirmation classes, and youth groups. These programs are meant to provide community, education, fun & play, and service opportunities. The regular programming runs from mid-September to mid-May. Summer activities happen throughout the months of June through August. Please reach out to Rev. Gene Ryan, Family Life Pastor, for more information, including schedules and events!

    FELLOWSHIP

    The church is more than a building or an organization - the church is people! The Colts Neck Reformed Church is people who care for one another. We celebrate successes and mourn losses together. One way that fabric of the church is woven even tighter is through fellowship. All are invited to participate in caring, supporting, laughing and drawing ever closer in the love of God!
