Family TALK May 3

View this email in your browser 1st thru 5th grade will be singing on mothers day in both services. Please try and have your child available for both services Click here for the words Upcoming holidays encourage us to honor other people—especially those who make sacrifices for us. Mother's Day and Father's Day offer reminders of God's commandment to honor our parents. Memorial Day is an opportunity to remember people who've laid down their lives for our safety and freedom. Use those holidays as springboards for family discussions about honor, respect, and sacrifice—concepts that aren't very popular in today's society.  Check out this months newsletter for some "how to" ideas. We had a great time at BAM!  Plans changed due to the time it was taking on the Ropes Course.  Some children played Laser Tag instead. We wanted to make it possible for all children to participate in some way while there.  A voucher for one free Laser Tag or Bowling, has been placed in your church mail box.  Have fun as a family and be sure to say thanks to BAM! while you are there. Sunday May 3 is our last Sunday Night (5yrs thru 5th grade).  We will review 11 different Godly characteristics we covered this past year, Wheel of Fortune style.  Prepare your kids by going over the characteristics with your child from the Get Wisdom book.

Family TALK April 19

View this email in your browser CLICK HERE TO SEE LAST YEARS EVENT "Children need to experience the feeling of being forgiven to begin forgiving others. They also must learn that forgiveness is more than just accepting an apology. It also involves resisting the urge to retaliate, get even, or make someone pay for mistakes. We become vulnerable as we allow that person back into our lives—and that's also a big part of loving others. As you help your children understand that Jesus forgives them and that they can forgive others, share the joy and freedom that comes from both experiences".  - from monthly newsletter -  Read this months newsletter to learn practical ideas for exploring forgiveness as a family.  (newsletter) Pastor, David Faris Children's Ministry  |  dave@immanuel.cc  |  Immanuel Church     cell:  616-335-1296  |  office:  616-392-1814 unsubscribe from this list    update subscription preferences
