A Note from Elizabeth
I'm not sure how many of you made it to church this past Sunday with the weather the way it was. I ended up getting sick so I wasn't able to be there either. The kids were actually ready to go and waiting in the car when I told my husband it was a no-go.
I did want to let everyone know that I have been having some health issues for the past year. The doctors aren't sure what's going on and it's been a very frustrating time for me. I am on a special protocol right now with a very restricted diet and activity requirements which leaves me with little energy. The goal is to give my body a chance to heal itself as well as identify trigger foods.
I'm doing reduced hours at the church, so you will not be getting (as you may have noticed) weekly newsletters. I'm trying to keep up with the FB page but I'm not always on top of it. Please bear with me and be patient if things aren't running as smoothly as they usually are. All prayers are much appreciated!
Best,
Elizabeth
Helping Children Understand Lent
We also have a booklet at the Kids' World Desk that explains a variety of things associated with Lent. Feel free to pick one up on Sunday and read it with your child(ren).
Kindness Deserves a Rewind
For the next 4 weeks, we'll be taking a look at Kindness - what is it? Why should we be kind? To whom should we be kind? Does being kind get us anything? Please take time to focus on kindness at home and encourage your children to be extra kind to kids at school and other activities. By the end of our unit, hopefully, kindness will become a habit.
Note: For kids who go to Keith Elementary, Dr. A has a Kindness challenge this month. This is a great opportunity to put your faith into action at school!
