Fun Worship Songs for Kids
Family LearningDID YOU KNOW? Halloween began as Hallows Eve, the night before the celebration of All Saints Day - a Catholic holiday remembering the faith of all the saints who have passed before us. Without Christ at the center, it's little wonder that the world began to focus on death and darkness (even if it is in a lighthearted way). But in Christ, we celebrate life, hope, and faithfulness that conquers the power of the grave! This year, we invite you to remember the faithfulness of the saints in your own life who have passed on. Share stories of parents, grandparents, and old friends who have gone to be with the Lord. Some ideas to celebrate together:

The point in all this is open up communication with your kids. Create a safe space and grow together! Don't feel like you need to make everything fit into a nice and tidy box at the end - that can actually create an environment where kids feel less willing to share and acknowledge negative emotions. But DO point back to Jesus and share ways that you have found hope in difficult circumstances. This week church will be going back to virtual as many are feeling sick. This is in order to help keep everyone safe and healthy. When we are back together, we will continue to encourage you to wash your hands in church and wear a mask when you cannot be socially distant. We want to keep you and your family healthy. Have a great week! Watch: Do:Sing: |
