Partnering with Parents News & Children's Ministry Lesson for August 15

Grade Promotion Sunday is August 29 during the main service followed by a "Goodbye Summer Popsicle Party" for all the kiddos!  If you have a child going into the 3rd grade or going into the 6th grade for the 2021-2022 school year we want to recognize those kiddos and emphasize that as kids grow, their understanding of foundational truths grows with them.  
Here's the breakdown:

•  Tots (ages 1-3) will move up to Tykes/Kids class on their birthdays when they turn 4.
•  Tykes/Kids (ages 4-8) those that are going into the 3rd grade will move up to Students.
•  Students (ages 9-11 and/or 3rd-5th grade) those that are going into the 6th grade will move up to Youth.

Please reach out to me at [email protected] if your child will want to be recognized on this Sunday.
Be watching for more information on this fun day!

There will be classes for all age groups at GLC this Sunday!  

• Tots (ages 1-3) will be in the Tots room.
• Tykes/Kids (ages 4-8) will stay inside and be in the room adjacent from Tots room.
• Students (ages 9-11) will be inside in the Students room downstairs.

Please don't forget to pick your kiddos up from class after service is dismissed.  Thank you!

We use Gospel Project for Kids curriculum for the Children's Ministry at GLC.  The Gospel Project for Kids is a Christ-centered ongoing weekly Bible study resource that looks at the big picture of God's story; the story of redemption through Jesus Christ. Each week, kids of all ages will follow a chronological timeline of Bible events, all the while learning how each story points to the gospel of Jesus Christ.  

And now for this week's lesson... 

This upcoming Sunday your child will learn about: Letters to Seven Churches
Story Point:  Jesus showed Himself to John and explained that He is the First and the Last, the Living One. While Jesus was on earth, He defeated sin and death by dying on the cross and coming back to life. Now Jesus is lifted up in glory and honor forever and ever.
Family Bible Reading: Revelation 11:15
Big Picture Question:  What is the hope of the church?
Big Picture Answer:  The church looks forward to Jesus' return when he will make all things new!
