Sunday School during COVID-19:
Beautiful Savior has Sunday school lessons available for families.  Watch your email weekly for lessons.  To help parents teach the lesson, join the online Bible adult study on Sunday mornings at 9:30 am starting on April 5. 

Looking for a great summer program to keep your children active and entertained?  Camp Grace is a summer day camp offered at GLS for children ages 4-12 years old.  Current Camp Grace families have until Feb 26 to secure a spot.  Registration will open up to current school families on Feb 27, with public registration opening on Mar 16 if slots still available.  For more information, contact the school office at 232-7747.

When Jesus entered Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, people celebrated the coming of the Messiah.  Beautiful Savior will host its own celebration for kids age four through grade five on Sunday, April 5 from 1-2:30 pm.  This year’s party will include crafts, resurrection rolls, snacks, an Easter Egg hunt with prizes and the story about Palm Sunday.  Cost is $3 per child.  Please pre-register with Bobbi Hestdalen or Pastor Brian if you plan to attend.

The youth group is sponsoring a Chili Cook-off and Silent Auction on Saturday, March 21.  If you have an item that you would like to donate for the Silent Auction, please visit with Pastor Brian or bring it to the church office with a note indicating that it’s for the Auction.

We are looking forward to sharing Jesus with our students through the school year theme of “Beautiful Feet on Every Street”.  This theme is based on Isaiah 52:7 “How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news.”  As always, feel free to stop in and visit your school any time.  We enjoy connecting with family and supporters.

Crosstraining meets one Sunday each month from 1-3 pm and is for children in first through fifth grades.  Crosstraining involves food (both spiritual and physical), fun and fellowship.  Our next Crosstraining day will be March 15.  Contact Pastor Brian with any questions.

The Sunday school children in grades Pre-K thru 3rd grade will be singing before both services on Sunday, March 15.  Please have your child(ren) here by 8:00 am that morning for them to rehearse and to line up.  After they are done singing, they will sit with their parents for the worship service.  Even if you attend the 1st service, please allow them to stay for the first few minutes of 2nd service to sing at that time too.  Thank you.

BSLC offers a Sunday School program for children ages 3 and up during the school year (Sept – May).  Sunday School meets from 9:30-10:30 am on Sunday mornings (conveniently scheduled between our two Worship Services).  If you have a child age 3 and up, sign them up for Sunday School (the form is located under the “Resources / Forms” tab of this website) or you can pick one up in the Narthex at the church.  If you have any questions, please contact the church office.

 

If you would like to help our Sunday School program in any way

(ie: teaching, substitute teaching, being that extra set of hands in a classroom, helping with memory work, taking attendance, etc), please contact the church office or stop in the office on Sunday morning to sign up.  We can always use a spare pair of hands!

This year the offerings received during VBS week went to help battle malnutrition in Zambia, Africa.  Kids at ROAR! VBS joined a mission effort thru World Vision to provide nutrition packets and health checkups for moms and babies in need in Zambia.  The special ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) packets help bring hungry kids back from the brink of death in mere weeks – making this gift a real life-saver!  

Our VBS kids are happy to announce that $390 was collected and donated to this life-saving support to families in Zambia.

There are brochures in the narthex for those who would like to attend church camp.  This year’s theme at Shepherd’s Hill at the Crossroads is “A Great Cloud”.  Some of the camps offered are horse camps, art camp, guitar camp and even an adult camp.  Their website is www.shretreat.org.

 

This year’s theme at Lutheran Island Camp and Christ Serve Ranch is “Forgiven”.  There are great programs for all ages.  Their website is www.islandcamp.org.

If you have pictures from church events and are willing to share them, please let the office know.  You just never know where we might use them…  Thanks!

This year the offerings received during VBS week went to help battle hunger in Haiti.  The island of Haiti has been battling years of drought and hurricanes.  As a result, parents struggle to grow enough food for their families.  Operation Kid-to-Kid is partnering with World Vision to provide Haitian families with drought-tolerant seeds – A $10 gift provides seeds that can grow into food that will feed a child for an entire year.  Our VBS kids are happy to announce that $464 was collected and donated to provide seeds for Haiti.

The following note was sent home with all Sunday School children on Sept 17:

“Dear Parents of Sunday School Children:  We would like to encourage talking about God’s word at home.  To help facilitate this, each grade has been given memory work.  Please take some time during the week to work with your child(ren) on their memory work.  We would like each child to be able to have all of it completed by the end of the year.“
