Generosity: Making someone's day by giving something away
Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” (Acts 20:35) However, sometimes generosity doesn’t come naturally to us. We want the newest and best things, or we want everyone to notice what we have. When we really enjoy the things we have, sometimes that makes it harder for us to be willing to share with others. However, with the help of God’s Spirit, we can learn that HOW we give is more important than even WHAT we give. It’s about our hearts. God showed us the ultimate example of generosity by sending Jesus. This month, in children’s ministries, we’ll take a look at how we can respond by being generous to others.
In 1 John 3:16-18. John was writing to a group of believers to encourage them and remind them about Jesus’ love for them. John described how Jesus gave the greatest example of love when He gave His life for us. To love IS to give. Whether we give our time, our talent, or our things, we can show the love of Jesus when we give to those in need.
Giving can be difficult sometimes. Maybe we want to give the very best gift - or maybe we feel like we don’t have the right resources to be able to give. But, when we look to Jesus, we can learn what generosity is all about. Because of Jesus’ example, we can learn how to give and invite others to experience the love of Jesus for themselves.

5G Christmas
As we prepare for Advent and the coming of Christmas our kids and students are learning what is means to have a 5G Christmas. After all, what do those five Gs really mean?
As we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of the holidays, we can lose sight of why and who we are celebrating. While we can be excited about the anticipation of toys and presents we hope to receive, we also want to take time to reflect on the reason for the season. We want to remember that Christmas is all about the gift of Jesus and that is a great reason to celebrate!
While kids' church is an important part to our children's ministry, there are times in which it is important for the kids to stay with their families in the sanctuary. For this reason, Kids' Church is not offered on Communion Sundays or special Sundays such as Easter and Christmas. Kids' Church is also only offered periodically throughout the summer.
