Sunday, May 17th kid's update

Hello Moms and Dads (and Friends) of Westbridge Kids!!

Here's an update on last week's lessons :
_____________________________________________________________________
PRESCHOOL:

In Preschool, we started a new series called, "I Can Be Brave." We learned about "Joseph in a Hole" from Genesis chapter 37. Our lesson was on bravery, and our Memory verse for the series is from Joshua 1:9,

"Be strong and brave because God is with you."

Here are a couple of discussion questions you can use to further the lesson:

-Have you ever been afraid?
-What helps you when you are afraid?

GRADE SCHOOL

In grade school this past Sunday we also started a new series called DEAL WITH IT!. We talked about fear and how God helps us overcome the fears in our lives.

Our lesson was on Joshua taking over for Moses upon his death. As a young man, he had to be afraid of leading his people, right???During our small group time, the gradeschoolers shared what they are afraid of and prayed as a group asking for God's help us overcome the fears we deal with. What a powerful time!

Our Power Verse of the week is:

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid. . . for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9

Remember parents, if your kids memorize the verse, they get a prize. . . a little incentive:)

Have a great week, and we will see you on Sunday!
