Attention Parents of Kindergarten through 3rd Grade Students:
May is going to be a very important time in our Kids Worship and Bible Study hours as we teach our children about God’s desire for us to be PATIENT.
Our biblical approach to this principal is taught through the following Bible stories:
Week One – Joshua’s and Caleb’s 40 Year Wait (Numbers 13:1-14:1-38)
Week Two – The Israelites Try to Take the Promised Land (Numbers 14:39-44)
Week Three – Rahab and the Spies (Joshua 1-2)
Week Four – The Fall of Jericho (Joshua 3:1-14; 6:1-25)
Our memory verse this month is Psalm 27:14, "Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord".
We appreciate your reinforcement of these lessons at home and your help in reminding your student throughout the month of May that PATIENCE means “waiting till later for what you want now”. To help illustrate this message we are sending an Air Head candy home with your student the first weekend (May 3/4). During Kids Worship & Bible Study they will be instructed to save this treat until the end of the month (specifically May 25th). As they meet the challenge we hope you will celebrate with your child their patience in a way that will help them remember it. You may wish to add another treat to the first one, or perhaps another reward that is appropriate. The point of the exercise is to set kids up for success and encouragement. No one should feel like they failed.
We look forward to continuing to partner with you on your student’s spiritual journey. Please let us know if we can in anyway further assist you as a family. To register for our upcoming summer activities, visit www.lpkids.com
