How to Talk to Your Kids about Sex

More often than not, we parents are caught off guard when our children come to us with questions about sex; if they come to us with their questions at all.  But human sexuality is too important a topic to allow our kids to navigate without parental guidance.  At SWFF we are committed to equipping parents to be the most important influences in their children's lives and that includes shaping their sexual character.   That's why we offer a free workshop for that will teach you how and when to talk to your kids about sex. This workshop is especially beneficial for parents of preschool & elementary children on Tuesday, May 22ndTo sign up click here.  

Popcorn Help Needed

Are you looking to take that first step to serving, but don't have a lot of time right now? We have the perfect opportunity for you! On Sunday mornings during our God @ the Movies series we serve popcorn to those who attend the services. You could volunteer to make popcorn at 8:15 or 11:30 for the next few weeks. Just contact Dawn Davis, dawn124@gmail.com if you can help.

At this fun-filled interactive service, the kids bring their parents to church. Through drama, original video, and dynamic music, kids are introduced to biblical values in a fresh and exciting way. The Buzz is helping families experience the spiritual journey together.  This month's virtue is Hope.
