Today we celebrated Father's Day in church! And we learned that God is Jehovah Jireh. We talked about how we can trust God to provide for our needs. We shared experiences of times when God provided for us personally. We read from Exodus 16 and learned all about that special food called Manna and how God provided to the Israelites. The children made a special craft to give to their Father's, and we enjoyed a special treat of Popsicles that was just right for a really hot Miami day.

God is Elohim, that was our lesson this week. God is all powerful and we can trust God to protect us. And indeed what a mighty God we serve. The children worked on some homemade blankets for the Linus Project. They were able to get 4 blankets completed. And they did a fabulous job. It is our prayer now that these blankets would be a blessing and comfort to some children who are in need of this.

Whoa! It is the start of summer for most of our children this week and also the start for some new lessons in Children's Church. We will be using Worship Kidstyle for the next few weeks as the children learn about the different names of God! This week the kids learned that God is Yahweh. We read the story of Moses and the burning bush out of Exodus 3. The great thing about introducing a new curriculum is it is introducing the stories the children have heard before but we are looking at them differently with new questions and the children are learning new wisdom from God.
For the craft this week the kids made some fabulous burning bushes! Check below for a snapshot of the craft this week that one of our students made.

Sunday May 31st Church BBQ!

We enjoyed another Church BBQ this week with lots of good food and fellowship. We even had a special visit from the Ark of the Covenant with a teaching on it as well. And the rain was gracious enough to hold out until the very end! The Children all had fun climbing up the trees and playing games in the field and I think a few of the them were especially enjoying the yummy desserts and soda!!

Today, the children were challenged to be pure in every area of their lives and we helped them to understand that being in the Bible and reading His word daily is a great way to stay pure, on the path, and purpose that the Lord has for each them. The kids also made commitments to read their Bible each day for a month.
We will be checking in with them to see how they do!
They made some wonderful Mosaic fishes for the craft time check them out they did a really good job!
