What's Happening in BK: April 28 - May 4

Wednesday (Grade K - 5)
6:30 - 8:00 pm

Wednesday Schedule: January - May

This week, we conclude the unit I Am Set Apart, with the lesson "God Rescues You" from Romans 5-6. Kids will learn of the incredible reason Jesus came - to rescue us from sin and brokenness and make a way for us to have a relationship with God. Kids will learn that this is the most important truth we can know and believe because it changes our lives forever. Kids will also learn how to share the gospel with others!

Unit Memory Verse: "If you love me, you will keep my commands" (John 14:15).

Wednesday's Café Meal: This Wednesday night's menu options include BBQ pork sandwiches served with coleslaw, roasted garlic tomato soup, chicken strips, crispy chicken garden salad, dinner salad, deli sandwiches, pizza, nachos, and pretzels. The Berean Café is open from 5:15 - 6:30 pm

Sunday (Birth - Grade 5)
9 am & 11 am

We begin a new unit this month called Ready, Set, Go, with the theme The Holy Spirit Is Our Helper. The first lesson is "The Great Commission" from Acts 1:6–11 & Matthew 28. Kids will learn that after Jesus died on the cross, he appeared to the disciples to show them he was alive again! He stayed with them for forty days and told them about the Kingdom of God. Jesus gave them a mission to tell everyone about him and make disciples, and told them they would receive the Holy Spirit. After Jesus said these things, he was taken up to heaven on a cloud. 

Unit Memory Verse: "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things" (John 14:26a).
