Hi Parents!
We are so glad to partner with you in helping you raise disciples of Jesus! The curriculum we are using on Sunday’s are a part of the Cross Formed Kids Curriculum. The lessons will be organized around one catechesis style question and answer per week. These questions will be moving through the various covenants in the Bible that God makes with His people. From creation, to Abraham, to Israel, to David, to Exile, to Jesus, your children will be memorizing various truths found throughout Scripture. When your kids memorize the Cross Formed Kids catechism, they’re building shelves in their heart and mind where they can store all the truth that they’ll learn from Scripture across a lifetime. Five minutes a day can build Biblical literacy for life!
So with that said, you as the parent have a huge role in allowing this curriculum to work beyond a Sunday morning. The link below will give you access to our online community. This space is for you to connect with myself and the other parents, to review the week’s lesson, and have access to the songs that help in the memorization of each week’s lesson. This is a fun way to review and memorize the question and answer each week. I also have physical notecards available at the check-in table that families will be given to review the various truths taught throughout the month.
The teachers are excited to be the launching point to each week as they introduce the question and answer each Sunday that you can continue to teach your kids throughout the week.
If you have any questions please email me at jp@oceanview.org
