Children

A Children’s Ministry Program on Wednesday Nights from 6:45 - 8:15 PM.  Children age 3 through 5th grade are welcome.  Classes are grouped by age.   LifeSigns Jr. is a part of CrossWalk Wednesday Night Fellowship with a meal at 6:00 PM, and activities for all ages at 6:45 PM.
 
We start out with an opening song, object lesson, and lesson/topic preview.   The children are then split up into different age groups.  They have a time of lesson, crafts, and games all relating to the topic of the evening. The children will also have a memory verse each week to learn and memorize.  Each time they memorize their verse, they will receive Bible Bucks that are redeemable at our LifeSigns Jr. General Store, for small toys, bookmarks, pencils, stickers, etc.  
       
 
 
         
May 1 
Don't Worry - Be Thankful 
 
This lesson will help kids learn that our focus should not be on ourselves, but rather on God’s kingdom and His righteousness.  As God supplies our daily needs, we should express our gratitude with prayers of thanksgiving. 
       
May 8 Friends to Keep  
In this lesson the children will learn the importance of choosing friends wisely, and how they might be influenced, either good or bad, by the friends they keep.  Our lesson will come from the book of Proverbs which also gives us wise advice and warnings about who we have as friends. 
       
May 15 God's Power  
After completing this lesson, the children will see that God is a God of      miracles and that His power and might sustains us each and every day.
       
May 22  End of Year Party    “The best of the best."  We will have all of our favorite activities from the year and with special treats.
