Grace Kids
This Sunday through our study of Jeremiah 31, we’ll continue to learn that God can be trusted. The prophet Jeremiah told the people that God was going to give them a new covenant. God’s words brought hope to God’s people because his words are true. God can always be trusted. Jeremiah told them of a day when God would forgive sin and change people’s hearts. Jesus’ death and resurrection provide forgiveness of our sins. Through Jesus, we have new hearts and life with God forever.
Please pray for our kids to trust God and his word. Pray for them to desire to follow Jesus because of what he has done on their behalf.
