The Family Table

Dear LEFC Parents,

Here are some items on the agenda for the days ahead:

The Gospel Project at Home

Today’s Bible Study is “God’s People Were Taken Captive” (Volume 5: Unit 15: Session 3). Ask your kids what they learned in Kids Bible Class this morning and/or do the family devotional you can find at this link.

Snack and Yack

When the auditorium empties after worship, girls and boys (grades 3-7) who listened to the sermon (remember to fill out a handout!) are invited to Pastor Matt’s office for a tasty treat and a brief discussion with one of the LEFC elders (and sometimes guest preachers?!) about the message. Parents, if you would like to help host the discussion by providing the snack, see Holly Crumrine to get involved.

And for dessert…

I (Pastor Matt) want to thank Holly for providing the weekly recommendations all the way through my sabbatical. She did a great job, and I’m sure will be offering some more soon.

My suggestion for this week’s “dessert” is to direct all the LEFC parents to the archive of Family Table emails on the church website to review all of the things both Holly and I have recommended since we launched this email last October. It’s a treasure trove!

Each item in the archive is also sharable as a link, so we encourage you to send it to other parents who might find these resources helpful.

Your turn!

We would like to feature your recommendations in future Family Table emails. Either send us a link–or better still–send us a paragraph about what you have found helpful in feeding the faith of your family.

Matt Mitchell, Pastor
