Curriculum Update – God makes our world COLORIFIC!
This Colorific theme is woven through both Sunday and Wednesday programming to to help us teach preschoolers that God keeps His promises. We’ve all experienced a broken promise or two and our preschoolers won’t have to wait long to experience one too. We want them to grow up knowing that God always keeps His promises. No matter how long we have to wait, God will come through.
Colors are a huge part of a preschooler’s world, and as we explore the colors of the rainbow, we will teach preschoolers that God loves them, and that He always keeps His promises. This is such an important part of the foundation we want to build for preschoolers as they grow to believe that God made them, God loves them, and Jesus
wants to be their friend forever.
We are continuing our journey through God’s COLORIFIC world through October 17th.

Moms Podcast Club
Over 70% of moms in America work, and I bet, that most feel pulled in a thousand directions (prepping for that big meeting at the end of the week, being the family Uber driver, grocery shopping/ cooking meals for the family, providing love & care (without looking tired) to each child, creating a moment of connection with her partner, and don’t forget a moment of self care, like exercise or a soak in the bath or read a chapter in a book). PLUS that crazy pull to be “Pinterest” perfect that mamas sometimes fall for. (deep sigh)
The Moms Podcast Club will be listening beforehand to “For the Love of… with Jen Hatmaker” Parenting episode 3: Working Moms Stretched Too Thin: Jessica Turner on Work- Life Satisfaction
Mark your calendar for Monday, October 15th at 7:30pm to chat about what “work- life satisfaction” can look like and how we can all support each other.
We’ll be checking out a ✨NEW✨ location at Grizzly’s in Plymouth.
