Faith Formation
ZOOM Faithwalk and Compel! have finished for the season. We look forward to seeing everyone again in the fall.
Faithwalk Summer Bible Reading Challenge: For those entering Grade 3 to Grade 6 – Read the Gospel of Luke by August 31, 2020. Let Pastor Lisa know you completed the challenge for your prize! Looking for a Bible for your Grade 3-6 student? Try out the NIrV Study Bible, or the CEB Deep Blue Wonder Bible. Both contain the full scripture text at a Grade 3 reading level. Need some help? Ask PL for a Bible and/or a handy 48 day reading plan.
Try these questions to guide your reading:
What is something you like in today’s reading?
What is a question you have or something that you didn’t like in today’s reading?
What does this passage teach us about Jesus? Or about being a Jesus follower?
Introducing “The Tiny Truths Illustrated Bible” and it’s upcoming companion “Wonder and Wisdom” Created by Canadians Joanna Rivard and Tim Penner. Written for ages 4 to 8. It is a wonderful addition to family scripture reading. Faithwalk Day Camp attendees will receive their own copy and Pastor Lisa has extras for anyone who isn’t able to participate in Day Camp. Just let her know you would like a copy.
