United in Him
At Babel, mankind was united in rebellion against God. Instead of listening to God's command to be fruitful and fill the earth (Gen 1:28; 9:1), they stayed in one place (11:4). There they tried to make a name for themselves (Gen 11:4), when God is the one who makes a name for His people (Gen 12:2). God confused their common language and scattered them throughout the earth so that they would not remain secure in their sin, where they only had death and damnation.
God desires that all people be united in Him, not against Him. The Son of Man was lifted up on the cross to gather all people to Himself (John 12:32). On Pentecost, the Holy Spirit was sent so that people heard the gospel in their own language and believed in Jesus (Acts 2:6). Through God's Word, the Holy Spirit continues to create and sustain faith in Jesus, uniting us in His body, where we have life and salvation.

the signup genius page
and pick the age group and Sundays you are available. Volunteers must be at least 17 years old.
There will be two volunteers per class with the exception of the 2 year old class where parents attend with their kids, so you don't have to go it alone.
