It is Easter Week. The last week of Jesus' life. This week take some time to read these accounts of Jesus' last week here on earth and talk about it with your child:
Matthew 26:17- 28:61
Mark 14:12 - 15:47
Luke 22:7 - 23:56
John 18:1 - 19:42
This is the cornerstone of our faith. Jesus coming down on earth to die for our sins is the reason why we can be united with Him in heaven! On Easter morning talk about the resurrection of Jesus with your children. What an awesome Father we serve!
Have a great week!

Good afternoon parents! This past week your children continued to learn about honesty through the story of Zacchaeus. The bottom line for this week was: Truthfulness builds friendships; dishonesty tears them down.
Take some time this week during your natural rhythm with your child and talk to them about their friendships. It is so important for your kids to have good influences in their lives and also to be a good influence in the lives of others. Help your child pick one friend that is always honest with them and that they can be honest with. Have them write them a card to thank their friend for always being honest and for being a good friend. Then send it in the mail. Have fun being creative!
Let me know how it goes this week!

Good afternoon Parents! I hope that you are out enjoying the weather today - it is absolutely beautiful outside! Take some time to go on a walk with your kids, or to just sit outside and have a snack together. This is a great opportunity for you to find out how your child is doing and what is going on in their lives.
This week for KidZone your children learned more about honesty. The bottom line for this week was: Lying to hurt someone else really hurts YOU. I have heard some great feedback from our small group leaders about this virtue this month from your kids. It seems like they are really getting it and understanding the importance of being honest.
This week take some time to tell your child about a time when you ever told a lie as a kid that backfired. Tell your child what happened, and how you should have done it differently.
Have a great week!

Good morning! This past Sunday we introduced a new virtue for the month of March - Honesty. This month your children will be learning about choosing to be truthful in whatever they say and do. The bottom line from this past Sunday was - when you're not truthful, you hurt the people you should care about the most.
Sometime this week during one of your natural rhythms with your child (morning time, bedtime, meal time or drive time) talk about these questions:
- What does honesty mean to you?
- Tell a time when you were not honest and what the consequences were. Tell a time when you were honest and how you felt afterwards.
Have a great week, let me know how your conversations about honesty go this week!

Good morning Parents! I hope that you are having a great week so far. I am loving the sunshine this week, it makes it seem like spring is right around the corner :).
This past Sunday was our last week on Honor. The bottom line for the hour was: Honor God OUTLOUD. Your kids made tambourines and danced around like David did in the streets.
This week, take some time to honor God out loud. Pray out out loud together, sing and dance together, or read Scripture together. Take time to do one of these things or all of these things out loud together.
If your child really likes the music we sing during KidZone you can go to amberskyrecords.org and click on the Family Side tab at the top of the page. You can download any of the songs that we sing during our KidZone hour.
Have a great week!
