NEED TO KNOW

Starting Sunday February 19, 2017
at 9, 10:20, 11:40 am

In His Grip,
Pastor Ben

KIDVILLE
FEBRUARY
 
Because we are created in God's image, we have the capacity to love. Every time we choose to treat others the way we want to be treated, we show others a glimpse into the perfect love God has for each and every one of us. We will spend the month of February taking a closer look at the way love shows up throughout the Gospels in how Jesus interacts with others.

You can always follow along if you miss a Sunday by going online to studio252.tv, and of course by coming to Kidville Grow on Wednesdays! Don't forget to encourage your kids to do their GodTime cards to dig deeper. 
OPPORTUNITY
We love our Kidville volunteers and we are always looking to expand our Team! Let us know if you are ready to get involved, in small or big ways, to see our kids get to know and trust God's love and learn to follow Jesus! Our volunteers play a key part in helping families feel comfortable leaving their kids with us in a safe environment so they can participate in the main service.

If you are interested in finding out more about this opportunity let us know!

KIDVILLE GROW REGISTRATION
Our PK's will be learning about "Stones, Slings, and Giant Things"  which is all about David and Goliath. David's heart matched God's, and ours can, too! A heart like God's wants to do what is good, which is why our memory verse is Titus 3:1.
"...To be ready to do what is good." 
Titus 3:1b NIRV
