A Soul Craving For Nerf Gun Adventure






What does the soul of a child crave?

One easy answer is ADVENTURE!

Children's imagination is alive and lights up at the possibility of an epic adventure. We can see this in all the video games and movies for children out there. We are going to go on a Nerf Gun Adventure

For the next three Sundays we are going to explore "Soul Cravings" for children through the theme of "Fighting the Good Fight of Faith"

The Memory Verse - 2 Timothy 4:7, "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."

Fighting the Good Fight for the Lord starts when we FIGHT SIN and FIGHT DOUBT. But we can only do this when we FIGHT WITH GOD’S STRENGTH.

For the first two Sundays children are going to have different targets that represent sin and doubt and they are going to use NERF GUNS to take them out!

These are the three main points we want the children to discover:
1) May 15, Fighting the Good Fight of Faith means we will Fight Sin in Our Lives
2) May 22, Fighting the Good Fight of Faith means we will Fight Doubt in Our Lives
3) May 29, Fighting the Good Fight of Faith means we will Fight Sin and Doubt with God’s Strength



PARENTS PLEASE NOTE: Children will not be making targets out of each other! Children also don't need to bring their own nerf guns. We have all we need

It's Not Easy Being the World's Future

We are in a "Kids Matter" series here at Highview. We believe that children are important and develop our Children's Ministries around this truth.

This coming Sunday we are not having any service in the Lower Level for children. We are all going to be together and engage some fun activities and stations together. We're all going to explore how it isn't easy for children to be the world's future and what we can do to help!

CANS: Please don't forget your food cans this Sunday! We need it for a station and it is going to the "Fill A Freight Truck" project.
