Children's Ministry News

We have a wonderful opportunity at GLC to participate in Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child. Samaritan's Purse is bringing shoebox gifts and the Good News of Jesus Christ to some of the most remote corners of the globe. This is a wonderful opportunity to teach our children about giving and the love of Jesus!

Starting Sunday, November 6, we will shoeboxes and labels available to help get you started on packing your shoebox. If you'd like to participate, please bring your packed shoebox back to GLC on Sunday, November 20.

This is a church wide event that all can participate in, even if you don't have children in the Children's Ministry! There will be information and shoeboxes at the back table in the sanctuary.

For this Sunday, we will have classes for:

Gospel Tots - ages 1 - 2 Years Old
Gospel Tykes - ages 3 - 5 Years Old
Gospel Kids - K - 2nd Grade
Gospel Students - 3rd - 5th Grade

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...
