What’s happening in Christian Education for kids kids and their caregivers (!) in June at FUMC?
Worship, our annual BIG GAME, and the start of a summer movie series!
Hey! Why not do all three together as a family?!
Our summer film series will feature selections from the “What’s in the Bible with Buck Denver.” (Yes, these videos are appropriate for adults and kids!) It will be a fun way for kids to enjoy a change of pace from our school-year Rotation lessons, while learning in this unique way about the Bible. And think of the family discussions this will open up!
This video series is by the creator of Veggie Tales! Here’s a short preview of this film series… (Watch here if you are reading this in an email.)
What’s up with our focus on families?
This summer we are encouraging families to attend worship together at Green Wood and to come to our video lessons on Sunday mornings (in the air conditioned Chapel!). Afterwards there’s Lemonade on the Lawn for some fellowship time. Join us!
Here is the schedule for June downtown on Sunday mornings…
| Date | To learn about… |
| June 1 | Attend worship/Communion as a family. |
| June 8 | The BIG GAME! (Where we review the year, and see if the 6th graders are smarter than the rest of us!) |
| June 15 | Let the movies begin! The What’s in the Bible video series. The Big Questions: What is the Bible? Why would the Bible be called “The Most Important Book?” What is God’s Rescue plan?
