Kid Talk Flipbook For Review 05.10

Week 13: Hope and Celebration
Scripture & Theme
Isaiah 40:51
But those who hope in
the Lord will renew
their strength. They will
soar on wings like
eagles: they will run
and not grow weary;
they will walk and not
be faint.
Pray:
Dear Lord, thank You
that You not only give
us hope, but You also
give us strength in hard
times. Thank You for
new friends at Kid Talk.
Theme:
We can have
confidence that we are
healing. We have lots
of reasons to hope. We
have learned how to do
griefwork.
