THE MESSENGERS: A 4-WEEK SERIES FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT ON THE EARLY CHURCH
WEEK 1 BIG IDEA: We are God’s Messengers

SERIES OVERVIEW:

How many ways can you send a message? There are so many unique ways! Special deliveries are the best but even better are the messages found in each package. This month, we are going to look at the most important message that was ever sent out and how we are meant to be the ones delivering it. Kids are God’s messengers that can share the stories of God’s miracles and help. Get kids involved in helping God’s message go everywhere because God delivers everyone!

Celebrating often feels like a fun thing to do when we have extra time, but I would like to make the argument that we would be better off making celebration a priority! There are a million things (big and small) that we should be celebrating to help us focus our attention on what matters . . . so let’s explore those things!

If you’re subscribed to Grow Your Ministry, now would be a good time to attach Volunteer Tip Video #10 from your Volunteer section.
At least once this month, choose a volunteer to celebrate. Add their picture and a few sentences about what makes them awesome!

We know you’re learning a lot about kids while you lead them, so we’d love to learn alongside you. What’s one thing you’ve learned this year that every family who is raising kids should know?
