3 and 4 Year Olds Set Excellent Example

We are so proud of our 3 and 4-year olds class! They collected offerings amongst themselves, filled a big jar and then presented it to the church! What a fine example they are to all of us. Just as the Bible says, "... alittle child shall lead them...". The excitement in their faces as they presented their gift was pure joy! God bless them, their teachers and their parents; all who support and encourage these little angels!

This Year is Our Church's 100th Birthday Celebration

In 2008 our church will be 100 years old! We will celebrate the church's birthday during Sunday School assembly time. Children are encouraged to bring their offering as coins, one cent for each year. If you are 7 years old, your Centennial offering would be 7 cents. These and any other offerings made will be collected and given to the church in honor of our 100 years of history. What a blessing to inherit the benefits of the prayers and the work of those who have come before us for the first 100 years. May we follow Jesus faithfully and pass on this blessing to those who come after us.

Children's Sunday School

Sunday School is the place to be on Sunday mornings! We have new classes with new teachers and a whole lot of fun! Come down to SonRise Village between 9 and 9:15! There is a class for you!

There are 6 age groups. This may change slightly in June when children are promoted to the next grade level. The 3 & 4 Year Olds Class meets on the second floor of the East Education Wing, above SonRise Village, the first classroom on the right. They are taught by loving Teachers and participate in many special Sunday School activities. The Infant and Toddler room is the next room on the right. The little ones are cared for by our team of church nursery professionals.

Classes are arranged as follows:

1. Toddlers and Infants
2. Three and Four Year-Olds, Room 221
3. Kindergarten Class, Room 129
4. First, Second and Third Grades, Room 127
5. Fourth Grade, Room 125
6. Fifth Grade, Room 123

Kindergarten - 5th Graders Classrooms are in SONRISE VILLAGE located on the 1st floor of the East Education Wing. Each age group is taught by a dedicated team of Teachers and Helpers. They are committed to helping you teach your children the Bible and leading them into a deeper understanding of God’s love for them. Our goal is to prepare each young person to face life’s challenges with a personal relationship with our Savior, Jesus Christ, and grow in maturity and wisdom through prayer and study and practice.

 PARENTS!

Bring your children to Sunday School. This is one of the most important gifts you can give them. Provide the opportunity for your child to know Jesus and to grow in his or her Christian life. Give them the opportunity to get to know other young people who are also leaning to follow Jesus. There is such a blessing in Christian Friendship.

Remember, there are also opportunities for parents to fellowship and grow together, too! There are several adult classes to choose from, and a new Ladies Class beginning this week also! Come feed your soul and enjoy good friends!

See the Calendar on the Children's Ministry page for kids activities.

RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE
OF FORT WORTH

POP-TAB ALUMINUM RECYCLING PROGRAM

Those little insignificant tabs you pull to open your beverage cans make a significant impact to the Ronald McDonald House. The tabs are made of pure, high grade aluminum unlike the rest of the can, which contains paint and other residue.

Irving First is "pulling" for the Ronald McDonald House by collecting pop-tabs, and then donating them to the House. Collection can is in the hallway by the office.

Careful! They are sharp! So don't cut yourself!
