GriefShare - Helping Grieving Children
by Jodi Rule-Rouse and Linda Ranson Jacobs
www.griefshare.org
Adults play an important role in helping children grieve. Sometimes this might mean someone other than a parent will need to talk with and spend time with the children. Children naturally want to protect their parents, so they may not be open with their own grief. Close family friends and even other relatives can step in and assist the parent in helping the children grieve. The following are tips that a parent or another adult can use to help grieving children.
Picnic & Playtime for Parents and Pre-schoolers
Every Wednesday except during school breaks and during special events
Choir Club 2009-2010
Hello to all!
As school is starting back and we are all setting our weekly schedules, I hope that you will make Choir Club an important part of your child’s activities. We strive to give your child a faith-based music education that not only involves them in the life of the church as active participants in worship, but also equips them with lifelong music, worship and leadership skills.
3rd Graders “Learning to Use My Bible"
Third graders will be given a Bible at both the 8:30 and 10:55 services. Please call the church office let us know which service you will attend so we can prepare. You and your third graders will come to the altar during the worship service you chose. When your child’s name is called, Pastor Max will give the Bible to your third grader.
Also, starting August 9 and lasting 8 weeks, Children’s Council encourages you to send your child to the “Learning to Use My Bible” class, in the Freeman building, Room B121 from 5:00-6:00 p.m.
