We thank you for your continued prayers for our LAMBS as they continue to grow closer to their Blessed Savior.  … [Read more...]

This Week the LAMBS will be learning about the Tower of Babel. Last week, they learned that mankind had turned away from God and had become wicked, except for Noah and his family who were saved because they obeyed God. In the story this week, they will see that mankind has once again turned away from God and become prideful.  The little ones will talk and think about how it must have felt to suddenly not understand anyone, and feel alone. Please pray for our little LAMBS in your daily prayers! … [Read more...]

The Great Flood and the story of Noah are the focus this week for our little L.A.M.B.S. Last week they learned about disobedience through Adam and Eve, and this week they will learn about obedience through Noah. They will learn how he obeyed God, even when others thought he was silly and laughed at him. To help them understand how hard it might have been for Noah to obey, they will talk about times when they may have been made fun of and how that felt. They will talk about storms, and being afraid, and will hear the story of how God brought Noah and his family safely through the Great Flood. They will learn of the rainbow and God's promise to Noah. Please remember our little L.A.M.B.S. and their families in your daily prayers! … [Read more...]
