This Sunday in Crossroads Kids
The Two Debtors
 
In this week's Bible story is a short parable Jesus told about two debtors.
The men owed different amounts of money: one owed a little money, 
and the other owed a lot.

Bring your children this Sunday to church so they can learn more about 
this powerful story.
52 Ways Kids Like to Receive a Blessing

Each week we will share a way kids like to receive a blessing. This is taken from the Crossroads Family Blessing handout.

As a family, we often read and discuss a favorite book and what we 
learned together.
Lenten Calendar

We've prepared a beautiful bag for you and your kids with activities to do as well as prayers and reflections for your use during this season of Lent. 

Please pick one up at the Children's area on Sunday or download it here.



Worship Songs

If at home or in the car your children start singing songs we sing at church on Sunday mornings, and you want to sing along with them, here are two links for you!

Developing Leaders

Jesus calls everyone to lead the way! I believe our little ones are leaders, too.
If your child likes to sing or pray, ask him/her if they would be interested in helping to 
lead worship.  I will send a YouTube link for your child to learn the lyrics.

If anyone has any questions, please send me an  email .
