Well Team,
We finished up another lesson for our Lord and Savior, their were 15 in attendance today, a little down from our normal 18, but, the kids had a great time…again! He tells us to go out and preach the gospel and that is what we are doing. Thanks for everyone’s hard work and committment, these children are being reached because of the Love for Christ that you are eager to share.
I’ve looked over the permission slips, and from our 22 that signed up, 6 do not have Church homes listed, which indicates there may be unsaved children in our group. Let’s PRAY specifically for them to be reached and ask Jesus to be their Lord and Savior. Then let’s also continue to PRAY for the other children as well. We passed out invitations to our Church service today, so be sure on Sunday, to look for any of our GNC children and their families and PRAY that some come out to visit us at our Church home.
I gave more thought to our next 3 week session and have a suggestion. In our next session, perhaps we could have one week where we just sit down and talk to the children in groups of 5 to get to know them a little better and get an understanding of their walk with Christ, each Teacher could have time to discuss in a small forum how to have an intimate relationship with Jesus. We have three weeks before Christmas break, I was thinking, one week review of the past 5 week Bible lessons on Beginnings, then one week of group breakout sessions as mentioned above, then a week for the Christmas Party lesson. Then we could start our next 6-week session with Patriarch’s in January. Email me your thoughts.
The Pumpkin Party was grand, we had a lot of fun. The theme of John 15:12 “My command is this, love each other as I have loved you.” was a grand ending to this session on Beginnings, instilling in the children’s heart to do as He commands us. I know you all are looking forward to our next session.
I PRAY for each one of you, your families and friends. I PRAY for God to do a mighty work in us all and thank him each day for His love, grace and mercy. May we all keep growing in Christ.
Reminder: Christmas Workshop is Saturday at Broadview Church from 9:00-3:00pm. Lunch will be served, cost is $15.00.

Hope some can make it out to some part of the workshop.
