    Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you. Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world. After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you. To Him be dominion forever and ever. Amen.

    DEAR PARENTS Here at FBCSA, we feel that it is important that kids attend a worship service with their families. As a parent, it is of utmost importance that you model and train your kids in their Christian walk. There is no better way to model corporate worship then to show your kids what it looks like to participate in worship, to listen eagerly, and to pray intently. As you gather here at FBCSA today, we want to partner with you and give you tools to disciple your family. Sitting still in worship can be difficult, even for the most dedicated church-goer, but especially for our youngest attenders. This booklet is designed to help your kids listen a little more closely and to help develop habits of participating during church services. This book is specifically intended for kids age four to around age six. He or she may need your help in navigating the pages. The format will be the same each week as you encourage your kids to listen closely and follow along with the service. Most importantly, after the services conclude, be sure to talk about the things your child learned throughout the morning, whether it be in the car on the way home, at lunch or dinner, or at any other time during the week. Be sure to ask them follow up questions, like, “Can you tell me about this drawing?” or “What words did you hear the pastor say today while he preached?” This will help solidify their learning and comprehension as you discuss the morning and the things God was telling you. God bless you and your family as you worship today. We are glad that you are here! Now, enjoy worshipping together as a family and blessings upon you as you grow in God’s Word together!

    DEAR PARENTS Here at FBCSA, we feel that it is important that kids attend a worship service with their families. As a parent, it is of utmost importance that you model and train your kids in their Christian walk. There is no better way to model corporate worship then to show your kids what it looks like to participate in worship, to listen eagerly, and to pray intently. As you gather here at FBCSA today, we want to partner with you and give you tools to disciple your family. Sitting still in worship can be difficult, even for the most dedicated church-goer, but especially for our youngest attenders. This booklet is designed to help your kids listen a little more closely and to help develop habits of participating during church services. This book is specifically intended for kids age four to around age six. He or she may need your help in navigating the pages. The format will be the same each week as you encourage your kids to listen closely and follow along with the service. Most importantly, after the services conclude, be sure to talk about the things your child learned throughout the morning, whether it be in the car on the way home, at lunch or dinner, or at any other time during the week. Be sure to ask them follow up questions, like, “Can you tell me about this drawing?” or “What words did you hear the pastor say today while he preached?” This will help solidify their learning and comprehension as you discuss the morning and the things God was telling you. God bless you and your family as you worship today. We are glad that you are here! Now, enjoy worshipping together as a family and blessings upon you as you grow in God’s Word together!
