                                                   “Responding to God’s Grace”

This quarter’s study begins with God’s demands for our complete and undivided love as shown in passages from Deuteronomy and Psalms. It proceeds with our response to God’s love in the advent of Christ and the Epistles’ interpretations of the nature and extent of our responses to God’s love in Christ. It concludes with passages from three of the Psalms expressing glorification of God.

Biblical stories will come alive in new and creative ways.

All children are invited to participate in worship each Sunday morning. Younger children, following the children’s message, may exit to Millard Hall to participate in Godly Play.

What is Godly Play? Children have an innate sense of the presence of God. The Godly Play approach helps them to explore their faith through story, to gain religious language and to enhance their spiritual experience though wonder and play.
