  Family Spotlight! 

In an effort for us to remember seeing faces, and to get to know one another better, I am going to spotlight one family each month in our church newsletter. (SO easy. PLEASE sign up. I promise it will not take much time at all.)
So far we only have 4 families signed up!!! Plenty of spots left.

Videos This Week: 
Story with Miss Chelsea: https://youtu.be/2AsdOMrdp-c
'Introducing Teddy' - A gentle story about gender and friendship
It's always good to listen - DEEPLY listen- when someone tells you something very important about themselves, especially if it is something where they are being vulnerable and having the courage to talk to you. 

***For the time being, we will no longer have preschool videos due to budget cuts
