SUNDAY SCHOOL MATERIALS DURING SOCIAL DISTANCING

Sunday, October 18

Good Morning, Parents!

Attached, you will find this week’s Sunday School lesson information. For those of you who will continue to worship with us at home, please read the application verse and text with your children. Following that, feel free to use the attached materials to reinforce the lesson.

In addition to the Sunday School material, I have attached a Sermon Notes Page and other items that go along with Sunday’s message from Matthew 23. Feel free to use these at home or print them to use at church during Worship.

For those who will be joining us on Sunday, we cannot wait to see you and your children. You will receive another email from me tomorrow with the details that you need.

As always, I am here if you need anything.

Blessings!

NEW BELIEVER’S 101 CLASS

The Kingdom Kids New Believer’s 101 Class is a pre-requisite for grade school children to be baptized at First Woodway. Classes are held in room 1204 from 9:45 am – 10:45 am. We believe that baptism is an outward symbol of an inward decision to follow Christ, so this class is for kids who have already accepted Christ as their Savior and desire to be baptized. In this class, we will discuss salvation, baptism, the Lord’s Supper, Worship, and how children can begin to grow in their Christian walk. Each child will receive a devotion book and workbook.

Class Dates for 2021:
January 10, 2021

MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers)

Never let your fire go out…When you hope, be joyful. When you suffer, be patient. When you pray, be faithful. Share with God’s people who are in need. Welcome others into your homes. Romans 12:11-13 (NIrV)

First Woodway knows being a mother is one of the toughest yet most important jobs a woman can ever do, and First Woodway has a MOPS group especially designed to help Mothers of Preschoolers! These often sleep-deprived women, with stroller and car carrier appendages, meet regularly every other Wednesday morning (9:00 – 11:30 am) from September to May.

Fees
MOPS International Registration Fee is $32 (paid at time of registration)
MOPPET fees are paid in September and January – $35/one MOPPET or $45/two or more

WEDNESDAY EVENINGS
Due to Covid-19, we are not currently having Wednesday evening activities.

KIDS’ ROOTED (during Fall and Spring)
Discipleship + Music
6:00 pm – 7:00 pm every Wednesday evening.

ROOTED is based on Colossians 2:6-7: “So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in Him, rooted and built up in Him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.” The Kingdom Kids staff has a deep desire for kids to have a deep-rooted faith. Wednesday evenings will be key to growing that faith through discipleship and music.

Fall: Emphasis on Discipleship
We will play games, memorize Scripture, learn Bible skills, and dig deep into the Bible as we guide your students to have a deep-rooted faith.1st-6th grade // 6:00-7:00 pm

Spring: Emphasis on Music
We will spend time learning music and learning how to worship God through it.

Preschool (ages pre-kinder & kindergarten) // 6:00-7:00 pm
Each Wednesday Night Beginning again in the Fall
We will have 30 minutes of music, followed by 30 minutes of discipleship. In Discipleship, the kids will begin to learn about the Bible and will be taught that God made, knows, and leads us. These all lay a great foundation to the Bible and introduces kids to great concepts. During music, the kids will learn fun songs that show the power and greatness of God.

Preschool (age 3) // 6:00-7:00 pm
Each Wednesday Night Beginning again in the Fall
Our 3s this year will stay in the same room the entire night. They will have play time, music time, and Bible story time.

Babies-Twos // 6:00-7:00 pm
For parents who are on campus, either serving or attending a discipleship class, we have childcare available for the littles.

For ages three through sixth grade, the place for music and discipleship is at First Woodway every Wednesday night! We also offer an evening meal, including a kids’ menu, from 5:00-5:45 pm each Wednesday. Cost is $6 per adult, $3 for kids 12 and under, and ages 4 and under eat free.
