Dear Parents,
Welcome to a new Sunday school
year!
We want to touch base with you and let you know what's in store this
year. Once again, we'll be combining the 1st - 3rd graders in one
class and will be meeting in the Growing Place room for the whole time.
(No more switching back and forth between rooms!)
It will be
beginning to look a lot like Christmas as we start our lessons this
year. The lessons are a chronological teaching of New Testament stories
so that does mean the birth of Jesus comes first! (If you hear any
Christmas carols being sung just remember there is a reason.) Below are
the lesson titles and the Scriptures we'll be using with them. We
hope you will ask your kids what they learned each Sunday and make sure
we're doing a good job teaching them.
Sept. 9--God hears Zechariah's prayer and promises him a son. Luke 1:5-25
Sept. 16--The coming of the Savior is announced. Luke 1:26-80; Matthew 1:18-25
Sept.
23--Good News of great joy! Matthew 1:18-25; Luke 2:1-38
Sept. 30--Family Celebration.
We
will also have memory verses but will be working on them in class this
year. We realize that most of your children will also be attending
Church Time so will be studying THE STORY along with you. We want you
to be able to put more time and attention into those lessons. Do ask
them to recite the memory verse though, as practice, practice, practice
puts it in their heads and hearts. The verses we will be working on
this month are Luke 1:18-20.
We're excited to meet everyone tomorrow. See you soon!
Thom & Liz Jordan
