KIDS CLUB KICK OFF
Wednesdays | 6:30–7:45 p.m.

 

This fall we will continue our Going Vertical Series. Kids will be moving into a study of the New Testament. We will
begin with studying the Gospels and seeing Jesus’ interaction with people around Him, how they came to follow Him and how we can too! The second half of the semester, we will discover how the church took off by looking at letters of
encouragement to the Church, then and now, and find out about Jesus’ promise to return. That’s a lot, but we are excited to make this journey together, helping kids grow in their knowledge and faith! Every week, leaders will connect with our kids, building relationships with them. One of our goals is for kids to know caring, loving adults who follow Jesus and set a godly example in life. In addition to all of the above, our kids will have the opportunity to continue making an impact in Kenya. Last fall kids learned that the Pokot children (served by our missionary Barb O’Donohue) needed about 100 school uniforms in order to attend school. We have almost met our goal but need a few more sweaters. Each time our kids give enough to purchase a part of a uniform (a pair of shorts, a shirt, a dress, or a sweater), they add that piece to our wall. It has grown a lot and we hope to complete our goal this fall!
