Course Description: In this class we will take lessons learned from the Bible and apply them to our life's. We will also talk about topics that kids this age are facing or will be facing. It can be topics such as bullies, peer pressure, encountering different religions, etc. Some of our discussion will be kid lead and some weeks I will present them a discussion question. During our discussion we will refer to the Bible to see what it says about how to handle certain situations. My hope is that we build their confidence so that they can stand strong when facing the world.On the weeks that we are not opening with discussion we will read Bible stories, work on projects, and incorporate a variety of activities.
Another activity that we will be doing throughout the year will be learning about mission organizations that are in our area. We will pick a couple of these organizations and complete service projects that benefit them. We also may have some speakers from time to time, local missionaries, pastors, etc.I look forward to getting to know your children more and helping to equip them with tools that they can use as they face the world.
