			Presbyterian Calendar for May

			KIDS WORSHIP FOR MAY 
			
			 
			Jesus’ Miracles 
			
			It seems every generation proclaims, “we live in a 
			changing world.” Ours is no different. We read about kids 
			experiencing more and more anxiety and worry at younger and younger 
			ages. The storms of life are real. They are real for adults  
			and kids. Some may seem simple to “fix.” Passing the spelling test 
			is a real worry, so study a little more. Making the cancer go away 
			in someone we love requires a different solution, but both problems 
			cause anxiety. During the month of May, we will look at how God 
			works in our lives to help us with difficult issues. We will explore 
			miracles Jesus did. We will look at the powerful work of Jesus that 
			continues today! While we long for the miracle, we will also 
			discover that even when the answer is not “yes,” hope remains sure. 
			Fear is often at the door, yet, the Jesus who did miracles  
			in Galilee is with us today just the same as he was in a boat with 
			the disciples. Today, he is available to provide for our deepest 
			needs. Through this series, we pray our kids will learn they can 
			depend on Jesus when the storms of life swell.  
			 
			Our key verse for this month is Psalm 77:14; “You are the God of 
			great wonders! You demonstrate your awesome power among the 
			nations.” Moms and Dads, if you would like to talk with your kids 
			about our study the topics are listed below: 
			• Jesus Heals the Deaf and Mute Man. Mark 7:31–37. We ask Jesus to 
			heal us.  
			• Jesus Brings Jairus’ Daughter Back to Life. Mark 5:22–24,35–42. We 
			hope in Jesus. 
			• Jesus Calms the Storm. Luke 8:22–25. We go to Jesus when we’re 
			afraid. 
			• Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand. John 6:1–14. We trust God to 
			provide.

			KIDS WORSHIP—June 2018 
			Kid Serve—Service 
			  
			
			You’ve Got Talent! Television features people with 
			all kinds of talents. Contestants are judged by a panel of experts 
			and at home by audiences. They either stay or are rejected. It’s not 
			like that with God. Ephesians 2:10 says, “For we are God’s 
			masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do 
			the good things He planned for us long ago.” God has plans for each 
			of you that only you can do. It could be performing in front of 
			others, or nothing like that at all! God has given you special gifts 
			to serve Him. Be eager to discover them and use them to the very 
			best of your ability. Join us in Kids Worship during the month of 
			June and discover how you can serve God with your talents! 
			 
			Our key verse for this month is Deuteronomy 13:4, “Serve only the 
			Lord your God and fear Him alone. Obey His commands, listen to His 
			voice, and cling to Him.” Moms and Dads, if you would like to talk 
			with your kids about our study the topics are listed below. 
			 
			Bezalel the Master Craftsman. Exodus 35:30–33;36:1-6.  
			We use our special gifts to serve God.  
			 
			Joseph Serves in Potiphar’s House. Genesis 39:1–6.  
			We serve others because we love God. 
			 
			Joshua’s Family Serves God. Joshua 24:14–18.  
			We serve God with our family. 
			 
			The Good Samaritan. Luke 10:30–37.  
			We serve everyone because God wants us to.

			Kick-Off Event for Families 
			
			 
			Our VBS Kick-Off this year is planned for Sunday, June 10, 3:00–5:00 
			p.m. This event is a fun time for families to get together and a 
			time to invite our friends! This year in addition to games and 
			inflatables, we will have pony rides for kids. To ride the ponies 
			kids must be at least 3 years old and cannot weigh more than 100 
			pounds. In addition, children MUST wear tennis shoes. Those wearing 
			sandals or flip-flops will not be allowed to ride the ponies. Most 
			people will receive the message, but we would like to be prepared 
			for those who might not come with appropriate shoes. So, if you have 
			a clean pair of kids tennis shoes that you could donate, we will try 
			to collect a variety of sizes for guests who may need them. After 
			the event we will donate the shoes to a charity. 
			 
			*A reminder, this year’s Kick -Off will be one week prior to VBS. 
			That’s something different this year, but we are hoping this will 
			give us an even greater opportunity to register more kids for VBS!
