Restore Kidz Update

This week we focused on WORSHIP. After the Lord’s Supper they went to the mountain to sing. This was right before Jesus was to be betrayed and crucified. Jesus chose to praise God in trials…so should we! We GROW our friendship with God when we worship Him. The Need To Know this week was I CAN WORSHIP GOD.

Worship with your child today. Sing God’s praises everywhere you go!

MEMORY VERSE for January

Psalm 63:1 “God. You are my God. I want to follow you.”

Thank you for letting us minister to your children.

During this series SNOWY RIDGE we are teaching your child the steps in GROWing their friendship with God. This week’s NEED TO KNOW was I CAN READ GOD’S WORD. This is the second step in growing your friendship with God. We talked about the things we need to survive Winter. We played a game as well. See pictures below. We then discussed that we need the Bible to help us survive being a Christian that pleases our Lord.

THINGS TO ASK:

Why do you think it’s important for us to read God’s Word?

If you don’t understand something you read in the Bible, who can you ask for help?

MEMORY VERSE for January

Psalm 63:1 “God. You are my God. I want to follow you.”

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

WE ARE EXCITED TO SEE WHAT GOD DOES IN 2020!

Look below for pictures of one of our best Sundays!

Monday, we taught your child that just like Jesus, we should get quiet every day to listen to what God wants to tell us! Our NEED TO KNOW was WE CAN GET QUIET. This is not telling them to be quiet, but to get quiet. Purposefully quiet themselves to be able to listen to what God has for them. We talked about Prayer and Bible reading. Encourage them to sit with you as you read your Bible (if you do not read your Bible everyday, this can be a great opportunity for you too)! Turn off the TV and put down your phone.

Ask them:

Why do you think getting quiet grows our friendship with God?

Where and when do you plan to spend time with God this week?

Help your child make a plan and stick to it!

MEMORY VERSE for January

Psalm 63:1 “God. You are my God. I want to follow you.”

What an amazing Sunday!

Two kids got baptized and we got to sing in church.

Thank you for letting us minister to your children.

We had such an amazing December. We had so much fun in the Holly Jolly Kitchen. We learned about Jesus’ birth and how the angels came to both Mary and Joseph. We learned yesterday that when Jesus was about 12 he stayed behind to talk to the priest at the temple. He wanted to hear about his Father and ask questions.

The NEED TO KNOW for this week was I CAN BE LIKE JESUS. We can tell everyone about our Heavenly Father! We can listen to those who teach us about our Heavenly Father. Jesus knew that if he wanted to grow to love God and love others more, He had to spend time in God’s house and learning God’s Truth.

Join us next week as we start our new Session called Snowy Ridge.

ANNOUNCEMENT

We have changed the date!! We will be singing January 5th! There will be one service that day at 10:00. We get to all sing together!

Ready for Jesus’ birthday?

We had such a great Sunday in Restore Kids! We played games, learned how Mary and Joseph were visited by angels and obeyed. They traveled to Bethlehem with great faith.

The NEED TO KNOW for this week was I CAN CELEBRATE JESUS! We get to celebrate Jesus during the Christmas holiday AND every day! He deserves our praise.

We celebrated with lots of games and fun times together! They put whip cream on their noses and stuck their faces in marshmallows for a relay race. They unwrapped presents to reveal the NEED TO KNOW. They also played a game of “Santa Says”.

Somehow it rained marshmallows after our game! When it rains marshmallows you just have to put them in your mouth!

Santa Came to visit!

How lucky were we to have Santa come visit Restore Church! It was a surprise visit!

DECEMBER MEMORY VERSE

Don’t forget to say your verse to Mr. Jesse after the service to get your candy.

Christmas @ Restore

The lights are up. We’ve got carols ready. It’s hot chocolate season. Best of all, Jesus is coming! We look forward to Christmas every year, but can you imagine how excited people were before His birth? Don’t get me wrong, I love the decorations, meals and gifts etc. None of those awesome feelings last though. Jesus came not to bring a momentary festive spirit, but to conquer death, hell and fear. Come on y’all, that’s worth getting excited about. I’m pumped to celebrate Jesus’ birth 3 times as a church this year: Sunday (12.22) at 9:30/11am and Tuesday (12.24) at 6pm.

Bring your friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers with you to one of our 3 Christmas services. We’ll sing Christmas songs, enjoy hot cocoa, a powerful Christmas message and celebrate the birth of Jesus together.

See y’all there

The countdown to Christmas is getting smaller.

You ready?

Ready to remember what Jesus has done for us?

Keep reading below to the end to see what exciting things will be happening December 29th in Kids!

The NEED TO KNOW for this week was God Has A Plan! We learned how Joseph was visited by an angel. God had a plan and because of Mary and Joseph’s obedience God could carry out His wonderful plan! The plan to bring Jesus down to earth as a baby to one day die for our sins so we could be with Him in Heaven. What a glorious plan!!

You can feel the Christmas spirit here at Restore.

We are in the Holly Jolly Kitchen Kids room remembering how Jesus was born and the event leading up to it.

The NEED TO KNOW for this week was God Can Do Anything! We read in Luke 1:26-56 how the angel Gabriel came to Mary. She was confused at first, but Gabriel told her all about how she would have a baby and will call his name Jesus. The angel also told her Elizabeth was pregnant in her old age to John the Baptist. Mary believed God could do anything. Elizabeth believe God can do anything!

Please comment below and tell us how God has shown you that HE CAN DO ANYTHING!

Restore Kids is now a candy free zone. Mr. Jesse is the “Candy Man” and will listen to them say their verses, Need To Know, and what they have learned in Restore Kids and give them candy.

Mr. Jesse told us his testimony and how he serves at Restore Church.

MEMORY VERSE

Below find the memory verse for the month of December. We sent this home with them yesterday. Memorize the verse and find Mr. Jesse and he will give you a piece of candy. He will also give candy to those who can tell him what they learned in Kids.

WELCOME DECEMBER!! The month we celebrate Jesus’ birth! We will be doing something different this month! Check it out below!

We will be cooking up some fun in Kids this month. Yesterday, we learned about Zechariah and Elizabeth. They are the parents of John the Baptist. They were very old. When the angel told them them they were to have a son and to call him John, Zechariah did not believe. So the angel took away his ability to speak. This weeks NEED TO KNOW (kind of like the BIG IDEA) is I CAN BELIEVE GOD. We can believe God even when it seems unbelievable.

MEMORY VERSE

Below find the memory verse for the month of December. We sent this home with them yesterday. Memorize the verse and find Mr. Jesse (usually by the bathrooms) and he will give you a piece of candy. He will also give candy to those who can tell him what they learned in Kids.

ELEMENT OF THE MONTH: Thankfulness

WATCH the video at the end of the blog to see what December’s lesson will be!

The Big Idea for the week is THANKSFULNESS IS A CHOICE. It’s human nature for kids to say things like, “They made me do it,” or “if you hadn’t . . . I wouldn’t have. . .” What they fail to realize is all of these develop from a choice. We all have choices to make in every situation. This even applies to being thankful. It is often easy to be thankful in the good times but not as much when things are hard. That’s why we need to choose thankfulness no matter what the circumstances might be.

VERSE OF THE MONTH: COLOSSIANS 3:15

We looked at the lesson in Luke 17 where Jesus healed 10 lepers and only one came back to thank him. Only one out of ten!! They had all been healed, but only one came back!

Have the best Thanksgiving ever!! Do not be like the 9 who did not thank Jesus!!! Be the one who did!

ATTENTION BELOW!!!!

We are starting a new series for the month of DECEMBER!! YES DECEMBER is almost here!!! Watch the video below to see what we will be learning about next month. Cant wait to see you Sunday!!
