Opposite Day Volunteer Email 3

We hope you’re loving this series as much as we are. We know an idea like the one we’re sharing this month can make a big impact in a kid’s life. We are so glad you’re helping them to process this.

Here are a few things coming up in our ministry . . .

ADD YOUR OWN DATES: CROSSWAY STATION
This quarter, we’re having kids travel around a “train station” to learn more about what Jesus did for them! Climb aboard!

ADD YOUR OWN DATES: VOLUNTEER MEETING(S)
Thank you for coming out to last month’s volunteer meeting! Our next meeting is around the corner, so mark your calendars! We hope to see you there as we learn about [add your own topic(s)] together.

ADD YOUR OWN DATES: KIDS COLOR RUN
This quarter’s event will have kids exploding with excitement, energy, and lots of color! Get pumped!

OPPOSITE DAY: A 4-WEEK SERIES FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT ON JESUS’ TEACHINGS
WEEK 3 BIG IDEA: Our enemies help us learn to love.

SERIES OVERVIEW:

Up is Down. Right is Left. Cold is Hot. That’s right, we’re celebrating opposite day this whole month (or should we say, not celebrating? This could get confusing!) This series will give kids a chance to talk about the counter-culture things Jesus said. It sounds impossible to believe that struggles bring us closer to Jesus or that our enemies can teach us about love. However, these beautiful opposites remind us that a God we can’t see is always with us and that it’s better to follow Jesus than our own instincts. Happy Opposite Day!

We all need a little help developing good habits. HERE’S a tool that might help. It’s created by James Clear, author of the book Atomic Habits!

At least once this month, choose a volunteer to celebrate. Add their picture and a few sentences about what makes them awesome!

Survey time! Did you grow up going to church as a kid or did you start coming to church as an adult?
