ELEMENT OF THE MONTH: Thankfulness
The Big Idea for the week is WE CAN EXPRESS THANKFULNESS IN MANY WAYS. Showing our appreciation for God is one great way to teach others about God’s goodness. Some people may never go to church. We can show others how great God is just by expressing thankfulness for his presence in our lives. This does not mean we have to like everything that happens in life. Thankfulness is expressing our appreciation for God being a part of the good and the bad.
VERSE OF THE MONTH: COLOSSIANS 3:15
We looked at three of the many ways to express thankfulness. First, simply say the words. Second, write down your thoughts of thankfulness to God or others. Third, if you feel led to do so, give up something as a sacrifice to the Lord.
Thanksgiving is coming up and many are putting on Facebook the things they are thankful for. Include your kids! Ask them what they are thankful for and ask ways they can show how they are thankful. Let’s become Thankful people!
Can’t wait to see you this Sunday!!! Wear your Flannel and bring a Flannel to give to the OASIS Shelter.
