Nursery (0-12 mo)
Babies at Canyon Church are shown the love of God by being played with, held and cared for!
Walkers & Preschool (13 mo - 5 yrs)
In our series, "I Can Talk to God," the kids learned that they can talk to God like a friend!
Bible Story: 1 Samuel 17:34-37
Before David was a mighty king, he was a shepherd. He talked to God as he watched his sheep! When he faced the mighty giant Goliath he prayed and talked to God. We can be like David, and talk to God about what's important to us and what we are afraid of.
Memory Verse:
I pray to you. Answer me because you love me sooo much! Psalms 69:13
Live It: Have your child...
Think about something you can talk to God about.
Elementary (Kindergarten - 5th grade)
The kids are continuing a series called "What's Bugging You?" Today they discussed "Worship." Our prayer is that each child will see God as the focus of their life and will take active steps to show their love for Him, by living a life of worship to Him.
Bible Story:
King Asa was a man who worshipped God. He went from town to town tearing down false idols that other people worshipped. He even removed his own grandmother from being the Queen because she didn’t worship God. God rewarded King Asa for his love for Him. He brought peace to the land that King Asa lived in. King Asa did what was good and right in the eyes of the God. He was faithful to God and God continued to bless him. However, when King Asa grew old, he turned from God and he was punished. He suffered and so did his land. It’s important to worship God our entire life. (1 Kings 15:10-24, 2 Chronicles 14-16)
Key Point:
When we worship God we show our love for Him. We worship God through our actions. Praying, singing, and making right choices are all acts of worship!
Memory Verse:
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. Mark 12:30 NIV
