GRACE KIDS MOVE UP: SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 8th
I thank my God in all my remembrance of you … because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. Philippians 1:3-6 ESV

We are thankful for the continued privilege of partnering with you as you disciple your child. As we prepare for the new ministry year beginning September 8, we have been praying for you and your children. We understand that our one hour with your child is such a small part of their week, and our mission is to equip you to extend prayer, Bible study and memorization, faith talks, and more into your whole week with your child.
How can you maximize the Grace Kids hour all week long?

PRAY! for your child. Grow in this basic but important spiritual practice by using this resource here . Add your child’s name to the Prayer Wall in our Prayer Room and consider joining the Wednesday 6A prayer gathering each week.

CHOOSE YOUR Grace Kids team! We are asking every parent to partner by spending time together with us in the Grace Kids space as you JOIN A TEAM. Yes, we are asking you to become a Grace Kids team member!

Not only will this make it possible for us to serve all families, you will be more aware of what your child is learning, which will only help you disciple your child during the week.

(Any groups/rooms that do NOT have sufficient team members to maintain safe ratios will be closed when we reach capacity.)

ARRIVE ON TIME each Sunday starting on September 8 to help your child find his/her classroom. Once capacity is reached in a group/room, the group/room will be closed.

Arrive 15 minutes before the 9A, 11A or 1P gathering to check in your kid(s).

INTRODUCE YOURSELF to those who are serving you and your child. Get to know your child’s small group leaders and pray for them!

USE OUR ONLINE RESOURCES to equip yourself to disciple your child at home.

Thanks again for partnering together to build disciples of the next generation!
DID YOU KNOW?

El Salvador Family Team

GOD IS GOOD! A team of 18 children and adults from Grace went to San Salvador in July as an El Salvador Family team to share God's word and love. The three 8-year-old children and the older children/students that were a part of the team made a big impact on the communities they served. They were truly blessed by the experience of seeing the body of Christ coming along-side children their age in life changing ways.
TEAM SPOTLIGHT
 ICYMI: Grace Kids team member - Jack Jurgensen - shares about his experience serving on the team: Hearing how these boys developed into young christians reminded me how important this ministry is.
