Hey Everyone! I pray your weeks are going well. We've had some exciting things going on the last few weeks and I've been trying to put emails out to keep you in touch but today I'm updating the website instead!!
Two weeks ago was Sports Sunday where every child was encouraged to wear their favorite sports team's jersey. We had a blast with that!! We also had our Grand Opening for the Adventure Pointe Trading Post. It went well. Every child was able to buy something if they wanted to, it was a great success. I pray it helped motivate the kids to stick with the spiritual disciplines we are all called to as followers of Jesus.
I've noticed in the many years I've been associated with children clubs is that a large percentage of the kids will not do anything unless a parent is encouraging them and helping them organize their time. The last couple weeks the number of kids completing the take home sheets and saying verses has started to drop. I know things are tough with school and activities but what we are encouraging the kids to do is vitally important and doesn't really take much time to do over the course of the week. So parents, please help remind your kids of the importance of scripture memorization and devotional/prayer time this week. You and your kids will be glad you did!!
Last week we looked at the bible story about the Israelites, Moses, and the Golden Calf. We focused on the fact that God is a jealous God and He desires and commands that He is the ONLY god in our lives. Help your kids understand this week that God is the only one we are to worship, not sports heroes, dancers, singers, not even our President. I hope you worship God throughout your daily walk, bring alongside your kids and show them they too can worship God each day in every circumstance.

Exodus 20:3 "You shall have no other gods before me”
