KidsPoint Devotional: (March Week 3) 

BLOOM (Birth-Kindergarten)
This month in Bloom, we are learning about God’s plan for us! This month’s memory verse is, "'For I know the plans I have for you,' says the Lord.” Jeremiah 29:11

This past Sunday (March 15th), we learned that God’s plan for us includes others. We read about the good Samaritan and how in order to be like Jesus, we have to love others the same way Jesus loves us! We learned that God commands us to love each other as ourselves.

We encourage you to read Luke 10:25-37  with your kids and discuss the following questions.
  • What does it mean to love each other as yourself?
  • Who is hard to love sometimes?
  • How can you show someone you love them this week?

We encourage you to pray with your child after devotion.

UPSTREET/ROUTE45(1st-5th Grade)
This month in Upstreet/Route45, we are learning that God created each of us on purpose and God has a special plan for each of us. This month’s memory verse is, "'For I know the plans I have for you,' says the Lord. 'They are plans for good and not evil, to give you a future and a hope.'" Jeremiah 29:11

This past Sunday (March 15th), we learned that God’s plan for our lives includes others. We read about the good Samaritan as an example of God’s commandment to love one another as you love yourself. We learned that God cares more about your heart and how you treat others, rather than your social status or your title.

We encourage you to read Luke 10:25-37 with your kids and discuss the following questions. 
  • What does it look like to love your neighbor as you love yourself? 
  • Do you know of anyone who people might ignore or avoid? Maybe someone at school or someone in your neighborhood?
  • How can you love someone this week even if you don’t agree with them?

We encourage you to pray with your child after devotion.

A note from the KidsPoint team.

Hello Parents!

We are so excited for all that God has in store for us this year, not only in KidsPoint but as a whole at BridgePoint. We believe that our kids are vital to the mission of our church, as well as the future of our communities. As part of our vision for this year, we want to partner with you, parents, to help incorporate more biblical practices in the daily life of our kids. We want to be intentional in teaching our kids how to take real ownership of their relationship with God and we believe that begins in your home.

Starting this year, KidsPoint is sending out weekly devotions and discussion questions for you and your kids. These devotions will be short but they will coincide with what your child is currently learning in KidsPoint. We encourage you to take some time throughout the week to sit down with your kids and discuss what God is teaching them and how they can apply it to their everyday life. This could be at the dinner table, in the car on the way to a sports game/practice, or even before bed. Our hope is that these devotions will assist you in helping foster your child’s relationship with God every day, as well as challenge them to dig deeper into their faith and in God’s word.

We look forward to all God has in store for you and your kids as well as our entire church family!

“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6

Sincerely,

The KidsPoint Team
