What we are teaching this month
Series Title: Follow The Star
Memory Verse: "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” - John 8:12b
Many families hit the road during the Christmas season, whether it’s to visit loved ones or take a much-needed break. It’s a time-honored tradition—one that might even be traced back to the first Christmas when a bright star dropped a pin on a special location to guide people to the birthplace of the Savior. In this 4-week series, kids will learn that God gives people to guide us, God offers hope to guide us, God provides a Savior with whom to guide us, and God gives direction to guide us.
