PARENT CONNECTION

Faith tools for parents to help grow spiritual connections within the home

 

What do you know about God?

Have you ever asked your children what they know about God? Have you ever shared with them what you know about God? Having this discussion might just be the best conversation you've ever had as a family. This is a conversation that will grow and evolve as your children age and as your family grows together spiritually.
WDYKAG Callage

Take some time this week to ask this question among the members of your family, no matter their ages. Tuck the responses away in your memory. Maybe you can journal about your conversation so that the next time you ask this question you can see how the responses grow and deepen.

The graphic at the right shows the responses we received from our KidVenture Wednesday Night 4th & 5th Graders when we asked them this question - a very thoughtful and insightful group! Click the photo to view a printable version of the graphic.

We're Still Collecting T-Shirts
KidVenture is collecting gently used t-shirts of all adult sizes. Donated T-shirts should have no designs on the back. The front design does not matter as it will be cut off.
