Just 3 more days until KidZRocK begins!



 


I've Been Thinking. . . . .

As we get ready to start another KidZRocK season, I've been thinking a lot about our theme, "Take Me To Your Leader." I mean, let's just say that some beings from outer space came to visit and asked you to do just that.

Where would you take them? Who would you take them to?

Yeah, I know aliens don't really exist, but think about it. Who is your leader? Who defines and determines the choices of your life or in the life of your child?

In my life there have been times when I was led by peers and public opinion, by someone I dated or wanted to "impress," and great day, this one was a recipe for disaster, lol, I thought I was my own leader. Those infamous words of, "No one's going to tell me what to do," resonated in my hardened heart.

But it was when I surrendered to God and his ultimate, perfect, compassionate, leadership that my life really changed. My choices became governed by what I was learning in God's Word. I began living out what I learning because I began trusting His ways to lead me in my life. This made a HUGE difference in how I parented, the choices we made with our sons, the priorities we set for our family and the way we chose to use our time, resources, gifts and talents.

This year, as HiSKidZ learn about following Jesus and leading others to Him, I want to encourage you to learn along with them--making Jesus #1 in your life and the ultimate leader for your family. 



BEGINS THIS WEDNESDAY at 6pm

It's finally here! Be sure to invite your friends--remember, if they are new to KidZRocK or NTCC, they can preregister in our system by going to go.kidcheck.com and following the prompts to save time in the check in line on Wednesday night.

We will be jumping right into our year learning about growing Spiritual Fruit in our lives through the power of God, and working together to learn the "Fruit of the Spirit" from Galatians 5:22-23.

I am currently working to put together a list of subs for our small group leaders, so if you would be interested in occasionally helping out when we have a need, please let me know. We'd love to have you as a part of the KidZRocK Experience!

 

HiSKidZ Serve!

HiSKidZ got to work Sunday morning while their parents were at our Small Group Open House and packaged boxes full of treats and snacks for NTCC students who have gone away to college.  I love their willingness to help and serve and I think they all gained some new expertise in the area of USPS one rate box folding!!

6th graders met immediately after and kicked off their cookie ministry. Cookie ministry is a special opportunity for 6th graders to help people connect and belong at NTCC through our coffee/cookie fellowship. Under the leadership of Amy Lambert, they baked around 60 dozen cookies today.

Great Work, HiSKidZ!!

Baptism Class this Sunday at 9am

HiSKidZ interested in learning more about baptism and what it means to follow Jesus can attend a class with their parents or a family member this Sunday, September 14 at 9am.

The one hour class will cover several different ways to understand what it means to follow Jesus, why we are baptized and how to know when a person is ready to make that decision, equipping parents to help lead their child in their relationship with Christ.

The class will be held in the first classroom on the left in our education hallway. HiSKidZ Discovery class  (for K-6th grade) will still be taught in the last room on the left for children who are not taking part in the baptism class.

For more information, contact Ms Dawn through the NTCC office at 524-8727.
