Dear Friends, REMINDER: Dorothy Halverson (Acorn Director) and I are holding a FREE Parent Preschool Workshop to share ideas on working with children ages two to six on the Bible. Anyone in the St. Louis/Elsah areas are invited to attend. Please let me know if you are wanting to come, so we have enough supplies. We are making packets filled with Bible ideas to give to you.
On December 3rd, I will hold a workshop for Parents and Teachers who are working with children ages six to high school. The topic will be "Knowing more about Jesus' times." We will look at Palestine in Jesus' day, the Temple and the synagogue, and upcoming healing or events in the next few weeks' Lessons. All are welcome to attend! Again, just let me know.
