This week was the annual Missouri District SHINE Servant Event.

For our class’s servant project, we planned and hosted an Easter party for the kindergarten and first grade students at Bethlehem Lutheran School. We had a wonderful time making new friends and sharing the joy of Jesus’ resurrection.

Be sure to check out more pictures at the end of the blog!

I hope you are enjoying the Easter season with your child. Easter is more than just one Sunday—we celebrate our risen Savior for 40 days!

We encourage you to include family devotions (led by your child), weekend worship, and meaningful religious displays in your home during this season. A new devotion will be sent home each week—be on the lookout for the yellow sheet!

I have invited each child to be like an Easter lily and shout the Good News. When your child leads a devotion please take a picture and email me so I can add them to the special bulletin board.

May worship be a priority for your family this weekend! I am leading all the children's messages at Zion and I hope to see some familiar faces!

In Christ,

Amy

EASTER PARTY WITH BETHLEHEM Kindergarteners and First Graders

We celebrated Jesus' Resurrection with new friends.  We played outside, had a glow in the dark egg hunt, made a craft, heard the Easter story, made a giant poster, did shape puzzles, and played BINGO! A great time was had by all!
