What we’re talking about in May:


Preschool: Jump, Jump and Go God’s Way!

Our Bible Story focus:
  • God’s way is perfect – In the Garden: Genesis 1:21, 2:8-24
  • I should go God’s way – Jonah 1:1-3:10
  • I can go God’s way even when it is hard – Naaman: 2 Kings 5:1-14
  • I can tell others about God’s way - Young King Josiah: 2 Chronicles 34
  • I can tell others about God’s way – Gideon’s Army: Judges 7:1-8
Memory Verse: “God’s way is perfect.” 2 Samuel 22:31

The first step to making wise choices is trusting that God’s way is perfect. Our prayer is that we can help make many of the 35,000 choices a day our preschoolers will be making one day a whole lot easier. They will know to jump, jump and go God’s way, because God’s way is perfect.

Elementary:

Our Bottom Line:
  • Keep practicing what matters most – 1 Corinthians 9:24-25 (supporting: Matthew 22:36-40)
  • Practice hearing from God – Matthew 7:24-29
  • Practice praying to God – Luke 11:1-4
  • Practice talking about God – Matthew 16:13-20
  • Practice living for God – Mark 12:41-44
God keeps all His promises and puts His plans into action. Because God has followed through on those plans, we get the chance to be with God forever. We reflect God’s commitment to us when we can make a plan and stick to it. This month, we’ll help kids discover that one of the best plans they can make is to commit to an ongoing relationship with Jesus: practicing faith by reading God’s Word, praying to Him consistently, talking about Him with friends, and living out that faith every day.

Families and friends gathered in the Barclay and on Zoom for a morning of fun and worship, Saturday, March 27. 
Together families sang praises to God and heard the Gospel message.
