SCHOOL SPIRIT SUNDAYIt's Back-to-Schooltime! Here is a bless-ing for children re-turning to school.Take a few moments thisweek to pray for our SHPC kids as they hit the hall-ways and start studying.God our teacher, we thank you for the gift of these chil-dren that you have entrusted to us.Bless them as they leave for school and begin a new yearof study.Help them to be good listeners, to show respect to theteachers, staff, and classmates at their school.Protect them throughout the day during times of learn-ing, study and play.Give them strength as they stand up against bullying,and live what they believe.May they always know that they are loved and valuedby us and by You…no matter what.Amen

KIDSTUFKICKS OFFSEPT 12TH!KidStuf is a monthlyfamily gathering time where kidsand parents learn together about God’sBig Ideas! It’s a 45-minute, fun, digital in-teractive experience designed for familiesthat typically takes place on the 2nd

Wednesday of each month.KidStuf exists to partner with parents. Webelieve parents are ultimately responsiblefor the spiritual development of their chil-dren (Deuteronomy 6:4-9). We recognizethat parents have a whole lot more timewith their kids than anyone at church—each year kids spend about 3,000 hourswith their parents versus the 40 or so thatthey spend attending church on Sunday.No one has more influence over a childthan his or her parent! So we believe thatit is our role to partner with parents byproviding a plan that will give them thetools they need to lead their kids spiritual-ly.KidStuf is for elementary age kids (K-4th)AND their parents. 5th graders are alsowelcome, but most choose to attend theTRUE tween program with Pastor Mikeduring this same time.Our opening show of the 2012-2013 schoolyear is right around the corner, so markyou calendars now to join us onWEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12TH, AT6:30 P.M. IN THE FAMILY MINISTRYCENTER. We look forward to seeing youthere!
