KIDS WORSHIP — Arctic Antic -

April 2019

 

Family dynamics can present some challenges! During the month of April, kids will be discovering how to meet those challenges by obeying our parents, sharing our faith, praying
together and getting along together. If you would like to encourage and review this study with your child, the weekly topics are listed below (the weekly point is listed in italics). During this month we will focus on a key verse from Romans
12:10, “Love each other with genuine affection.”
Children, Obey Your Parents. Ephesians 6:1–4; We obey God by obeying our parents.
Andrew Brings His Brother to Jesus. John 1:35–42; We share about Jesus with our families.
Mary and Martha Ask Jesus to Heal Lazarus. John 11;1–44.
