Starting September 30 - At home lessons for Church School.
We will treat this as an ‘Outreach Church School.’ We will deliver a packet once a month that will include a lesson for each week. Along with our packets we will be offering library books and movies for the children to ‘check out’ until our next visit. This will give us the opportunity to check in with the kids and their families, while still being safe. |
