KIDS WORSHIP FOR APRIL
The Art of
Prayer
If you’ve got kids, or if you are a kid, we know this, ‘kids talk!’
In Kids Worship during the month of April, we will focus on “the art
of prayer!” God wants us to talk with Him just like we’d talk to a
friend, but He doesn’t want us to just talk about ourselves all of
the time. He also doesn’t want our prayers to be a big show. The
great thing is that Jesus taught His friends how to pray and what to
pray for! During this month we will learn to follow His example and
we’ll discover some other people in the Bible who spent time
praying. We can learn a lot from them, so we are hoping you will be
with us in worship every single week during this important series!
Our key verse for this month is 1 Thessalonians 5:17, “Never stop
praying.” Moms and Dads, if you would like to talk with your kids
about our study, the topics are listed below.
Jesus Teaches Us How to Pray. Matthew 6:5–13. We pray as Jesus
prayed.
David Prays. Psalms 5:1–3; 34:4–7. We expect God to answer our
prayers.
Jonah Prays. Jonah 2. We know God hears us when we pray.
The Parable of the Persistent Widow. Luke 18:1–8. We pray without
giving up

Historically when observed, The Great Vigil of Easter, is the first
service of Easter. Rev. Quine invites you to join him as he ‘keeps
vigil’ from sunset on Saturday to sunrise on Easter Sunday.
Throughout the evening you are invited to come and go as you please.
The vigil is an adaptation of the ancient Paschal Vigil service and
consists of four parts: (1) The Service of Light, (2) The Service of
the Word, (3) The Service of the Baptismal Covenant, and (4) The
Service of the Table. Thus, we celebrate God's saving work in Christ
through the symbols of light, word, water, and the heavenly banquet.
We will complete our vigil and break our fast with a sunrise service
at 6:15 a.m.
