In every child’s life there are milestones:
…taking those first steps
…the first time a tooth comes out
…the first day of school
There are also milestones in our spiritual life. These are beginning places to a rich and growing faith. Our classes foster faith development in children and their parents and strive to support our church family in keeping the promises made at baptism.
At Crossroads, we have seven different Milestones. Each Milestone is targeted to a specific developmental age group, but any child and parent(s) of elementary age can register for any one of our Milestones. Each class is offered once during the year.
4K: Jesus Storybook Bible Milestone
Kindergarten: The Lord’s Prayer Milestone
Grade 1: Baptism Milestone
Grade 2: Communion Milestone
Grade 3: Bible Milestone
Kids in grade 3 and their parents are invited to a special time together learning about how, why, and when to use their Bible as well as simple Bible background. Join us as we share great insights, teachings, and tips to help your child grow in their faith. The workshop for parents and kids is held on Wednesday, November 13, 6:00–7:15 p.m. in the CLC, with dinner provided (childcare if needed). On Sunday, November 17 at Nine, participants receive their own Bible from the congregation. Contact Shelly Lemminger to register.
Grade 4: Worship Milestone
Grade 5: Stewardship and Service Milestone
