Nursery
Babies at Canyon Church are shown the love of God by being played with, held and cared for!
Walkers/Preschool
Currently we are combining the Walkers and Preschool classes as there have been a small number of children in these classes. We are watching attendance closely and as this class grows, are ready to split the Preschoolers into their own classrooms.
The kids are going through a series with Boz the Bear, "Color and Shape Lessons." Today they watched "Shaping Things Up" and learned how God made all of the fun shapes we see in the world.
Live It: This week, help your child discover new things that God created.
Elementary (K - 5th Grade)
This classroom will also be split into smaller classes as attendance continues to grow.
The kids are in a series called "Treasure Quest". Today's lesson was on An Appreciating Heart. Our prayer is that each child will understand that as they seek after Jesus, they will learn to appreciate and be more thankful for the things He has given them and done for them. They will realize that Jesus will always answer their prayers, not always in the way that they want, but in the way that is best for their character.
Bible Story: Luke 17:11-19
Jesus and his disciples were on their way to Jerusalem. As they came closer to the village, ten men who had a bad skin disease called leprosy came to meet them. The men were considered “unclean” because of their illness, so they kept their distance. They called out to Jesus, “Master, have pity on us and make us well.” Jesus responded, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” The men did as Jesus had instructed, and as they went, they were healed. Then one of them hurried back to Jesus. He began loudly praising God and falling down at Jesus’ feet, thanking Him. Jesus asked, “Were not all ten of you healed? Where are the other nine?” He said to the man at His feet, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well.”
Key Point:
As my faith in Jesus grows, I can appreciate Jesus more for what He does for me.
Memory Verse:
And in all you do, give thanks to God the Father through Jesus. Colossians 3:17b (NCV)
