What’s Happening in the JFB Children’s Ministry

July 22, 2018 The Children's Ministry

The Past

Another school year has passed, and with it another year for our Foundations and Beginnings Rooms. It’s hard to believe that we are halfway through summer now. In June, Foundations got to participate in the Domestic Trip by putting hand-prints onto a banner that was created for the Jesus Camp for Kids that team 2 held. The team (which included many of our Foundations kids’ parents on the 2nd team) had the kids that attended add their hand-prints.

Lessons

Our Foundations Room has also completed their first round through the Old Testament and are now working chronologically through the New Testament. The first couple of lessons went through how the four Gospels are the same story from different points of view. It was neat to see how the kids began to understand this. One of the kids gave an example that it is like we’re all standing around a round table looking at a big bowl filled with different kinds of fruit. We’re all looking at the same bowl, but we’re seeing different sides of it!

Next

Summer is a time for planning as well, for our future endeavors including a new set of memory verses for the Beginnings room, Worldview Curriculum, and yes…even the Christmas Program! We are constantly in prayer asking God to guide our plans and set our footsteps so that we can be used to support parents in teaching their kids the Gospel. Please join us in prayer asking God to open the eyes of the hearts of these children.

Welcome Aboard

We are also very excited to have Nancy, James, Regina, Maria, and Danielle H. as newer servants in the Children’s Ministry. If you are interested in becoming a part of the Children’s Ministry, please see Sara or Mandie.
