Exciting News!!

Hello,

I am excited to announce we will be using a simple curriculum in Baby Rays. I will be asking You the volunteers to teach the children a simple lesson each weekend. The lesson will be the same for 4 weeks. The June lesson will be God Helps Me to Grow. The objective for this lesson will be to help each child associate new accomplishments with God and Jesus. We will be using a simple rhyme to teach this to the children. I hope you have fun with this. Please feel free to let me know if you hav any questions/concerns. I also welcome any input you might have for future lessons or activities. I found this article relating to teaching babies about God and Jesus.

By Chip Alford
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)--Can you really "teach" babies about God?
Recent findings on brain development suggest an affirmative answer to that question.
"Babies are beginning to form associations about everything in their world, so how could you not begin introducing them to God and Jesus?" Lynette Henderson, a doctoral student at the George Peabody College of Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn., asked. "Will they understand those concepts the way older children or adults will? Of course not. But you're laying a foundation."

Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it (Proverbs 22:6).



Thank you for all you do!!!
