Children’s Ministry Summer Update

July 22, 2024 The Children's Ministry

Looking Back

Over the past few months in Foundations, we have been learning about the early church in the book of Acts. We have had visitors for a few of the classes, which is refreshing for the kids and teachers alike. During the opening prayer time of one class, a child prayed for visitors that day and a few minutes later, two kids showed up at the door to join class! I love it when God answers prayers so clearly, especially the prayers of children. He really does hear us!

On the toddler front, we have been able to open the Beginnings Room a handful of times since our spring update. All of our newly trained parents have had the opportunity to staff the Beginnings Room at least once. We will continue to open the room as needed when we have three or more toddlers who are old enough and ready to participate.

Future Plans

As the summer winds down, we will be finishing up our studies in the book of Acts. When the new school year starts in September, Foundations class will begin using a newer version of Answers Bible Curriculum geared for Grades 4 & 5. If you’d like, you could pray that this change would be a helpful tool for the spiritual growth of the kids in Foundations.
