Grace Kids
This Sunday is a one service All Family Sunday at 10:00am. And although our K-4th Graders will be with us in the service this Sunday, our preschoolers will be taught from 2 Chronicles 36. This Bible story takes place when the last four kings of Judah reigned and the people had turned away from God. God will not let sin go unpunished. God’s love and justice and goodness lead him to act against sin. Thankfully, we have a better King who always follows the word of God and does what is right. Jesus is the better King who conquered sin and death so that we could be forgiven and live with him forever. Please pray for our kids to know how much God cares for them and to desire to live according to his word.
