THIS WEEK I LEARNED

We want each child to know they are loved, valued and safe in our ministry. One of the ways we do this is by following our group promises. Please take time to review it with your child before class so that they understand the expectations. We will:  

• Listen when others are speaking and wait our turn to share  
• Keep our hands, feet, and objects to ourselves  
• Use calm, walking feet to move around the room  
• Use kind and encouraging words  
• Follow directions and make safe choices  

August 9 – September 6 in both Godly Play and Chapel, we are learning all about King David. We are watching portions of the movie and during this special summer sessions will include special snacks, crafts and activities that relate to the story. 

Connecting at Home, Questions you can ask:  

• What did you learn in class today about David?
• Did you have a favorite part in today’s movie clip?  
• If you were David, what song would you sing to God while watching the sheep?
• Why do you think God chose David instead of his older brothers?  
•  What do you think will happen next week as the story continues?

The Chapel Singers will be taking the summer off and resume meeting in September 13.

In our sensory-friendly service, we reflected on the story from Mark 14:3–9 that teaches that we can offer love to Jesus in ways that are beautiful and sometimes surprising to others.
