You are your child’s PFD!!
In confirmation this week I learned that I am my child’s PFD, personal faith developer. As parents we are given the task of developing our child’s faith. Do not fear you are not alone in this task. The Holy Spirit will help you along with Zion Church and School. You may wonder what a PFD does;
Pastor Rouland gives three responsibilities:
set an example, be authentic, and be faithful.
May God bless you in your job of PFD!
A Look Ahead:

We have started our guided reading groups and I feel this week went well. Next week your child will bring home a paper book. Please have your child read the book and then sign the form. Your child should read this book every night and return it on Friday. Rereading the same familiar book will help build fluency.
I hope you enjoyed the Blue Bag Books. Please return the books on Monday so that others will be able to take them home. I have noticed many of you have been reading and marking the September Reading Log, keep up the good work.

Please join me this weekend as we worship our Savior in church. I hope you have begun noticing your child participating more in the service. Be your child's PDF. Give them the opportunity to worship together with their christian family.
