Fighter Verse info is after the graphic.

The supported ministry this week is the Phillips family.

Children's Church Lessons.

Toddlers:  A healed man praised God - God loves to hear us praise Him.  The passage is Acts 3:1 - 11.  The memory verse is Psalm 111:1

4 & 5-year-olds:  The Church's Prayer - Christ answers our church's prayer.  The passage is Acts 4:1 - 31; 5:12 17-42.  The memory verse is Acts 4:31

1st - 5th grade:  Rules for God's Spiritual Leaders - God's holiness requires that we approach Him with respect.  The passage is Exodus 28:1 - 3; 39; 40:12 - 16.  John 15:9, 10

During July (no class on July 3), the classes will not be the same.

The classes for the children 2 years old through 5th grade will be VERY different.  

These classes will join for one class in the Kid's Chapel (1st - 5th grade Big Room) WITH THEIR PARENTS AND/OR GRANDPARENTS.

Children and parents will be meeting together for an intergenerational study.  This combined time will provide opportunities for families to meet together and learn about / practice family worship.

I (Pastor Dave) will be teaching/facilitating this kids/parents' time with the prayerful goal of equipping parents in their disciple-making role of their children.  We will spend time in God's Word each Sunday and will be encouraged to spend time throughout the week in His Word.

HERE IS THIS WEEK'S FIGHTER VERSE INFO:

The Fighter Verses for this week's Sunday School Hour are 1 Peter 5:9 - 10 [11]

Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. ¹⁰And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. [¹¹To him be the dominion forever and ever. Amen.]

BIG IDEA:   When temptations to do wrong come, ask Jesus to help you resist.

SIMPLE PHRASE:  Resist the devil.

This week's Fighter Verses is a continuation of last week's verses 1 Peter 5:6 -8.  

BIBLE-BASED PRAYER:

God, help me resist the devil and stand firm in my faith, knowing that there are believers all around the world going through suffering and challenges.

Lord, God, restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish me. 

Amen.
