Recommended Resource for Families

It's back-to-school time, and there is no better time to get back on track with our family Bible reading and prayer time. Together with Jesus is a 12-month family discipleship planner which begins in August. Each month has a daily Bible reading plan, a specific way for your family to pray, a place for prayer requests and blessings. This planner is a great tool to help families grow in understanding who God is and how that impacts our daily lives! There is also a memory verse card bundle to supplement the planner!

There is a sample book at the children's Welcome Desk and the main Welcome Desk. If you want to put in a group order to save on shipping, please sign up at the Welcome Desk or the children's Welcome Desk. The monthly planner is currently on sale for $12 and the memory verse card set is $15.

A Look at What We Will Be Studying…

Kidzlife Sunday Night Club will be using a curriculum from Truth:78 called the ABC’s of God. This curriculum will use the alphabet to help students understand more of the character and attributes of God. Students will learn of the greatness and worth of our God so that they may know Him and love Him more. Some of the attributes that we will study in the first few months are Incomprehensible, Eternal, Creator, Glorious, and Wise.
