It's that time of year...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Thank You!

"He is good; His love endures forever." ~2 Chronicles 5:13b

Thanksgiving is next week!  For what are you saying, "Thank You" to God?  Are we teaching our children to thank God for our blessings?  For our troubles?  In James 1:2-3 we read, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance."  Whatever you and/or your family is going through right now, take a moment and say "Thank You" to God for something.  Take a few minutes with your kids this week till Thanksgiving and make a chain of thanks so they can share what they are thankful for this year!

Give Thanks!

Thanksgiving is 2 weeks away!  I'm not entirely sure where the rest of 2013 went but my favorite time of year is here!  I get to go home and see all my siblings, nieces and nephews!  I am thankful I get to spend time with them all...especially since it only happens once a year.  For the first time, I am doing the 30 days of Thanks on Facebook...some days I have to post two since I sometimes forget a day:)  It is a great opportunity to think about all the things I have to be thankful for, especially on days where there doesn't seem to be anything.  I would like to encourage you, if you aren't already, take a moment each day for the next 2 weeks to talk with your kids about what they are thankful for right now...their answers may surprise you.

"Praise the LORD.  Praise the LORD, my soul.  I will praise the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live."~Psalm 146:1-2

Hello Kidz Zone!!!!!

We have changed our blog format and now will be using it as a tool to help you know what you children learned in class the previous Sunday.  At the bottom of the blog, you can find your child's class and see their Bible Point, Bible Verse and Bible Story.  Use this tool as an opportunity to discuss with your child what they learned in class!

Have a great week:)
