Sharing Jesus
The fourth quarter is upon us, and the kiddos are focusing on sharing Jesus. But it begs the question: What does it mean to share, let along share Jesus? For some, sharing is giving. For others sharing is receiving. But Jesus came to give (share) Himself so that others could have their share (receive) of Himself. Receive forgiveness and goodness and redemption and eternal life and relationship and love and freedom and and and.. We know "sharing" isn't easy! Let us join together as our kiddos finish out this year focused on giving, and receiving, the greatest gift of all - Jesus Christ!
Quarter 4: Share Jesus
You may have noticed your kiddos coming home with an activities calendar. This calendar will feature key actions that will help them to learn more about showing Jesus.
Take this opportunity to create dialogue, dig deeper into the character of Jesus Christ, and help our kiddos share Jesus to others. Our monthly Memory Verse will also highlight our quarterly focus.
Please encourage your kiddos to complete each activity and memorize their verse.
October's Memory Verse:
"And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, 'Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?' Then I said, 'Here I am! Send me.'"
Isaiah 6:8 (ESV)

How can you help?
Scripture reminds us of the importance of teaching and training up our children. Deuteronomy 6:6-7 encourages us stating, "These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up." (NIV) Let us embrace these words in our daily walk with God and as an example to those that look up to us!
We are always looking for volunteers with a heart for our kiddos! Volunteering can be through sponsorship of a child at Osanidde, providing care to our babies and toddlers, teaching our young ones, mentoring our teens - young adults, and through prayer! Help us to "Train up a child in the way he should go: And when he is old, he will not depart from it." (Prov. 22:6 KJV). Please reach out to children@dayspring.family to start your volunteer journey.
