THE NEW FALL CREEK KIDS
When accepting the position of
Director of Children's Ministries
for Fall Creek Kids, I understood
the weight of this ministry. For
this is not my ministry. This is
God's ministry; and He has
brought no shortage of children
to Fall Creek Church. But it's
still about this one child's walk
toward Him. This one child who
clings to every word of the
Gospel. This one child who was
born to worship. This is a
ministry full of just one child at
a time.
We all learn to walk closer to
God, when we see that faith
through a child's eyes. And I
also know that no shortage of
children lends the need for no
shortage of God's workman. A
healthy church is one that
grows organically, with a
vibrant heart of children's
ministry. As we navigate
together moving forward, I'm
prayerful (as you are prayerful)
of your investment in this
important ministry of God's
children.
In Christ together,
Miss April

So many of our Fall Creek families
have asked recently for suggestions
on family devotions they can do
together. Juggling everyone's
activities leaves precious little time
for intentional & Biblical teaching
moments. Tabletop devotions to do
together after dinner are always a
good idea.
Focus on the Family has compiled a
good 52-week devotion plan that
could work well for your family!
Making time for
intentional & Biblical
instruction, such as
through daily family
devotions, is always a
great idea;
however, purposing
to parent and lead in
a Christ-like
manner creates for
teaching moments
every day.

FOCUS ON THE FAMILY
Children best grasp the reality of God's love when they
experience it at home.
Whether your children are toddlers or teens, or somewhere
in between, they need to understand God's love for them.
> Parents can help their kids understand God's
love by modeling it at home.
> God doesn't just act loving; He is loving.
> God's love is caring, giving and makes the first
move.
