Learning to be Content

We are so blessed to work with the best kids in the world each and every week! Here they are during worship time:

Our Bible Heroes this week were Mary and Martha. We were realizing that often, many of us are not content with who we are, where we are, who our family is, etc. Mary and Martha had a lot to teach us about putting God first as well as being content with how God made us and where He has us.

They also learned through the parable of the workers called for at different times of the day (yet paid the same wages) that sometimes life isn't fair, but we have to be content with what God does for us. They are awesome kids and are willing to learn all that they can about the Lord.












































We will continue to learn from Mary and Martha the next time we have kid's Connection.

Pizza and John the Baptist

You may be wondering what pizza has to do with John the Baptist, let alone anything spiritual! Well, in class this week, we learned that John the Baptist knew the importance of putting things in the right order - that is, God, and the things of His Kingdom, first. To demonstrate the importance of doing things in the right order, we had 3 children follow 3 different sets of directions to build a pizza. Each one had the same ingredients, but only one set of directions was in the right order. So one had to put the cheese down first, then the sauce then the crust and finally the pepperoni. Another put the pepperoni, then the sauce, then the cheese and finally the crust. As you can see, if you would bake them the way they were made, you would have a mess. That is what happens to our lives if we don't build them on the solid foundation of Jesus!

Through this example, we could see that it IS important to put the right things first in our lives!

We also learned that even kids can get so busy that they feel like they don't have time to put God first and discussed ways to overcome this and why we should.















We even learned some new songs and had an awesome time of worship!













Our kids go back to school this week and we are in prayer for their safety, blessings and annointing to stand firm in what they believe in and not be swayed by the things in this world.
