Children's Ministry Lesson for August 20

This Sunday is Family Sunday!  All kiddos will remain in service with their families.  Activity sheets in the back of the sanctuary will coincide with today's lesson.  
 

Grade Promotion Sunday is August 27 during the main service followed by a "Goodbye Summer Snow Cone Party" for all the kiddos!  If you have a child going into kindergarten, 3rd or 6th grade for the 2023-2024 school year, we want to recognize those kiddos and emphasize that as kids grow, their understanding of foundational truths grows with them.

Join us after service for our Snow Cone Party outside.  Snow cones will be provided for all kiddos and children's ministry volunteers at no cost.  Each child will need to be accompanied by their parent and have a ticket to receive a snow cone.   The sugar-free syrup is available upon request.  

This upcoming Sunday your child will learn about:  Jesus Raised Lazarus
Story Point:  When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, He showed that He has power over death. Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life.” Jesus died on the cross for our sins and rose from the dead. He gives eternal life to those who trust in Him.
Family Bible Reading:  He was despised and rejected by men, a man of suffering who knew what sickness was. He was like someone people turned away from; he was despised, and we didn’t value him. Isaiah 53:3
Big Picture Question:  Why do people reject Jesus?
Big Picture Answer:  People reject Jesus because all people are born with a sin nature and want to please themselves rather than obey God.
