Hello, from Promiseland. I hope your Fall is going well and that you are not too busy to take time as a family to be in God’s Word together. I’m reading a book called Shepherding a Child’s Heart and the author talks about how Scripture teaches that the heart is the control center for life. A person’s life is a reflection of his heart. Proverbs 4:23 states it like this: “Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.” The picture here is of the heart as a well from which all the issues of life gush forth. The behavior a person exhibits is an expression of the overflow of the heart. Because of this truth, I believe it is imperative for those who are parents to be in the Word of God with their children because it is the Word that will change your child’s heart so they can be who God made them to be, like Him.
Promiseland Chatter September 2013
Wow! It has been a while. I hope your summer has been a good one. It has been really nice to have one service for the kids in Promiseland this summer. I hope everyone who helps got a well deserved rest from teaching.
Our only event in Children’s Ministry this summer was Vacation Bible School. We had 107 kids register and 40 helpers and had a wonderful week! There were about 20 non-Riverside kids who attended, which is always exciting. If your kids missed it this year, be sure to put it on your calendar for next July.
Sunday, September 1 is our promotion Sunday. If your child moves up to another class, this will be the day it happens.
God’s Kingdom Rocks!!
Thank you Riverside for all the support you gave to make VBS 2013 the success that it was. You gave generously both monetarily, to purchase supplies, and provide food for our snack time. We registered 107 children and had 98 attend for our biggest night. We are so grateful for our 40 adult volunteers who loved on the kids every night no matter how tired they might have been. For a better look at our week at VBS, check out the video below. We give God all the glory and praise for a wonderful week of Kingdom Rock!!

Promiseland Chatter May 2013
Halleluiah! We have almost made it through the school year once again. The kids in Promiseland (PL) are finishing up in their classes learning to be more like Jesus so they can make a difference in the world. We have celebrated as five kids made commitments to follow Christ for the first time and for the boldness all the kids are exhibiting as they pray together in class each Sunday.
