CRAWLING IN FAITH

Just as we learn to crawl before we can walk, we believe that the foundation for growing in our faith is understanding who God is!

God is big. I mean really, really, REALLY BIG. God made the Heavens and the Earth. He made the planets and the stars. God makes the flowers grow and the sun shine. God listens to all of our prayers - everyone's prayers - all at the same time. God is way stronger than we could ever imagine, He's way smarter than we could ever think, and He is so kind and good and amazing - we can't even understand! Who is God? GOD IS INCOMPREHENSIBLE! (Phew, big word!)

4 & 5'S / KINDERGARTEN ROOM

WALKING IN FAITH

What is the Bible? These Kindergarten brains are getting bigger and bigger as we learn more and more about the Bible!

This month we'll learn how God gives us special gifts that help us share the Bible and its truths with all kinds of people! This group will talk about the prophet Elisha and think about ways God can use them to spread the good news of the Bible all over our neighborhood, community, city and world! (Yes, the power really is in our hands!)

RUNNING IN FAITH

OCTOBER GROW KIDS SERIES: IMAGINE THAT!
A FOUR-WEEK SERIES FROM 2 KINGS ON ELISHA

The best place to learn how to create art is in art class. You'll discover everything you need to know about using your imagination to create brilliant pieces of art. Sometimes, the things you create can help solve a need or show the world something amazing about who God is. That's a lot like what the prophet Elisha did whenever one of his incredible miracles happened. In this four-week series, kids will hear about some of the amazing things Elisha did to help people imagine their gifts could make a difference. They'll see how God asks us to help each other, God can do incredible things, and how God helps us solve big problems. By the end, we'll start to see the wonderful things we can do when we know God gives us more than we can imagine.

4TH & 5TH GRADE SPACE

SPRINTING IN FAITH

What does it mean to follow Jesus? What does it look like? What does it feel like? God sent His spirit to live with all who believe in Him, and promised that it would help us answer tough questions like these!

We all have gifts and talents. How we use those gifts and talents can show the world what it means to follow Jesus! In a world of fast-paced conversations and constant transitions from one place to another, the Holy Spirit works in us to help us shine KINDNESS everywhere we go. This month, our 4th&5th Grade Crew will reflect on the ways Jesus showed the world kindness in all situations, and think through creative ways to sprinkle KINDNESS in every place we go, every single day!
