Reflect & Celebrate
The mission of LHKids is to teach the truth of the gospel in a way that kids understand and embrace it and want to change their lives because of it.
As we look ahead to next steps in 2020, we want to reflect on how God directed us in 2019 to a curriculum change, in order to focus on our mission.
After talking with parents and teachers, our desire was for families to have intentional conversations on the way home from church each Sunday. This seemed best implemented by having all LHkids, 0-12yrs of age, learn the same Bible lesson each week. We hoped that as parents asked, “What did you learn today?”, each child could articulate an age-appropriate understanding and be able to connect it to their everyday lives.
This curriculum, known as The Gospel Project, teaches our children that the Bible is one whole story, not just a collection of individual stories. From Genesis to Revelation, we learn that all stories point to Christ as our Redeemer.
We love that our teachers and The Gospel Project lead our kids to know the Truth, the love, the mercy, the grace, the authority and the humility of our King Jesus. No matter which lesson is being taught, each story reveals the Christ Connection of who Jesus was, and is and is to come…and that truth deserves celebrating!
