Adventures on Promise Island Sunday <strong>School</strong>!<br />
“I CARE ABOUT YOU” was the promise for October’s Sunday <strong>School</strong> Classes.<br />
The children learned 1 Peter 5:7 - “Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for<br />
you.” The younger children wrapped Brenna and Jared in toilet paper and then<br />
heard the story of Jesus cared about Lazarus, Mary and Martha. The month ended<br />
with the children making beaded bracelets for the Beading to Beat Autism<br />
Foundation.<br />
In <strong>Nov</strong>ember and December, we will be focusing on the promise of a Savior!<br />
