Children’s Ministries

Hello Kids and Families, It is so strange not to be meeting in person.  I hope the kids are not too fearful but happy to have another week at home.  For now we have cancelled: Roller Skating, Easter Egg Hunt and all other events till the Governor gives us the ok to meet.

We will spend a lot of time on Facebook trying to stay in contact.

VBS 2020

************************************************************************************************************************************

I think we all need something to look forward to. Our VBS for August 3-7th, 2020 is officially open. Yeah! Below is the promo video.  I am very excited about this curriculum.

North Castle is hidden in a frozen land. The King’s valiant Knights are on a quest in search of the King’s Armor. But the armor isn’t what they think it is.

Cokesbury’s VBS 2020, Knights of North Castle: Quest for the King’s Armor, invites children to be strong in the Lord and in the strength of God’s power by exploring how we put on the armor of God. Kids will take on the role of brave Knights and begin their quest each session by opening the King’s Book. They’ll explore Old and New Testament stories and discover different pieces of protective armor—the Belt of Truth, the Breastplate of Justice, the Shoes of Peace, the Shield of Faith, and the Helmet of Salvation—at work in the lives of familiar Bible characters, and explore how that armor works in their own lives as they follow and serve God.

At Christmas we gave each family, “The Promises of God Storybook Bible”. Let’s all read pages 54-58 and then answer the questions on page 59. For any After School Program families or other families that did not get one we will leave some books on Grace UMC’s back porch/main entrance.
