LINCOLN CHRISTIAN CHURCH
204 N. McLean St., Lincoln
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!
