ISLAND KIDS

FIRE-SAFETY SUNDAY
November 30 | 8:30, 10:00 + 11:30 AM

We’re excited to share that Joe Salmonese, one of our Sunday School leaders, will be joining us with the Greenlawn Fire Department this Sunday, 11/30, for a special fire-safety lesson! Kids in 4s & 5s through 5th grade will learn important fire-prevention tips, see real firefighter equipment, meet the firefighters, and even explore a fire truck parked outside the Elwood Lobby.

Please send your child with their jacket, as classes will be heading outside to see the truck. It’s going to be a fun and educational morning for all our Island Kids!
 

This Sunday’s Lessons:

Island Kids 2s & 3s and 4s & 5s:
2 Samuel 6:12-15; Psalm 144:9-10 Bottom Line: I can thank God for everything.

Island Kids 1st – 5th Grade:
Nehemiah 1–4, 6:1-15 Bottom Line: God can help you do big things.
