The Hands and Feet of God today!
Throughout the month of March we learned what it means to be disciples in the world today. By learning the story of Jesus calling his disciples, we now understand our role as the hands and feet of Jesus in the world! See picture highlights from last week above!
Sunday’s in April: Holy Week
Bible Story: Matthew 21:1-11; 26:17-58, 69-75; 28:1-10
Bible Verse: He isn’t here, because he’s been raised from the dead, just as he said. Come, see the place where they laid him. Matthew 28:6
Anchor Point: We celebrate Jesus!
Children will experience the Bible story in many different ways. As a result, each Bible story and its meaning will stay with them for life!Through art, cooking, games, missions, science, spiritual practices, and storytelling, children will learn the stories of Holy Week.
Open gym-Each Wednesday the gym is open for free play from 5:30-6:30 before class starts. Responsible high school students are in the room to monitor kids as they play. All kids are called into their classes by leaders at 6:30 sharp.
Each week Miss Autumn joins us during class to teach songs that tie in with our monthly theme! All kids also have small group leaders who meet with them each week to build relationships and to teach the lessons through games and activities. Research shows that all kids need caring adults other than their parents in their lives to walk with them on the journey. Our committed leaders understand this mission and have signed on for the year to walk in faith with your kids! Take the time to thank your child’s leaders each week.
