We desire to come alongside parents to teach these children the virtues that help to shape their character to be more like Christ. We desire to ignite a passion in the hearts of these children for Jesus Christ. Of course we cannot do this on our own because we have the children for just a small portion of the week. So we desire parents to be the primary source and us, the church, to be a secondary asset to you as the parent. We strongly believe in portraying Deuteronomy 6:6-9 here at church and most importantly in the home.
"And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates." Deuteronomy 6:6-9
In order to help children come into a vibrant relationship with Jesus Christ we focus on one virtue each month. We look at the virtue and learn about stories from the bible that portray that virtue. Each month your children will learn a memory verse that reinforces the virtue of the month, and each week they will learn a bottom line that focuses on a specific portion of the virtue. Jesus portrayed such wonderful character at such a young age. We desire that our children be imitators of Christ.
"And Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature and in favor with God and man." Luke 2:52
We desire to supply you as the parent with resources to use at home to reinforce what is being taught at church. It is such a joy to hear and discuss what they are learning about. Just below in the resource section of this page there are materials for you to use at home. All you have to do is click the name of each one and it will take you to that resource. We also pass out these materials every Sunday morning after Sunday School.
Monthly Parent Take Home: This is a great tool to use at home with your elementary school children to reinforce the lessons being taught at church.
Wednesday Night Verses: These are the verses that your child will be learning on Wednesday nights.
God Time Card: This is a resource for your child to use at home. It is a short little devotional for them to do four days out of the week. The God Time Card is a great way for your child to begin having quiet times.
