FROM THE PASTOR...

I love to play games and I am fortunate that I get to play a lot of hobby board and card games. In order to play all of these games I have read a lot of rulebooks, and I know how to play a lot of different games. The end result of all this is that when I am at a gathering where games are being played there is a good chance I am teaching a game. I have taught a lot of games.

February Mission of the Month -

Bashor Home

In the month of February, your donations will be sent to Bashor United Methodist Home. Bashor Home is a Residential Treatment Facility located on 160 acres just west of Goshen, IN. Bashor Children's Home has been helping minister to youth and families for over 75 years.

Date of Special Offering:

February 2, 2020

     Little Lights Preschool

   The month of February brings thoughts of Valentine's Day and love. Our preschoolers will have a party, exchange valentines, and learn about God's love. Lessons about Zacchaeus will provide opportunities for them to give and receive love and kindness.
   Zacchaeus was a dishonest tax collector who collected more taxes than were required and pocketed the surplus. The people of his town hated him. They couldn't believe it when Jesus said that he wanted to come to his house for dinner! But Jesus' unconditional love softened Zacchaeus' heart and changed his life. With this new feeling of love in his heart, Zacchaeus gave back more than 1/2 of his money to the people.

Preschoolers learn by example. We often see them treat others as they are treated. It's our responsibility to give children a loving, accepting example just as Jesus did. Show them kindness and love and they will treat others with this same kindness and love.

We will be working on the alphabet. We will do activities on the letters C, D, E, F, G, H, I and J.
