Parent Resources

Moms and Dads,

Our pastoral staff loves you and we’re thinking of you in this season of quarantine. We’ve found some great resources online that we want to share with you; some to help you disciple your children (from birth to grade 6), and some are for you as a parent in this season. If you’ve come across other resources that you’d like to share with other parents, please email Pastor Rob and we’ll add it to this list. To access some of these resources, you may have to sign up for a free account.

This Changes Everything

For Elementary

Sometimes there are moments that happen quickly – a balloon pops, a door slams, a cup of milk spills. These things happen in a flash. Sometimes we don’t even know they’re happening until it’s too late. In a moment, Paul’s life changed – he met Jesus and his life suddenly looked much differently. Paul was on his way to persecute Christians but instead ended up starting churches and writing more books of the New Testament than anyone else. Paul’s life is a crazy, action-packed journey filled with twists and turns where we discover that saying “YES” to Jesus changes everything. "This Changes Everything" comes complete with PDF lesson sheets, screen slides, social images, and more! Note: This series is not video based, but includes all the lessons, supply list, and graphics/slides you need.

This resource is provided by the River Valley Network (A/G).
