Grace Kids
We have been learning how the church grew and spread out into Judea and Samaria. As the church grew, Peter and the apostles also traveled to different cities. A few weeks ago, we learned that the Holy Spirit led Philip to an Ethiopian man who trusted in Jesus and was baptized. Then, last week, we saw how Peter traveled to Lydda and Joppa and healed Aeneas and Tabita. Many people trusted in the Lord and were saved when they experienced these miracles. Today, in our study of Acts 10, we will learn how the church continued to grow and how anyone, no matter who they are or where they’re from, can be saved by Jesus.
Please pray for our kids to understand that Jesus came to offer salvation to all people and that all people need to hear the good news so that they too will have an opportunity to trust in Jesus and be saved from their sins.
Mark your calendars:
Summer Adventure will be M-F, June 24-28, 2024.
Volunteer registration is NOW open.
Open Registration begins on May 6, 2024.
