Week 5 – NO KOW children will have the opportunity to worship with the church family.

Attention Church Family:    If you are willing to be a helper on one of the ministry teams or have any concerns/questions about the ministry please contact Mary Bugay (716) 930-8878.  We would love to talk with you and answer any questions you have.   Please pray for the KOW Ministry Team as we teach your children the Word of God.

During the fall quarter we will continue to teach the children how to use and love their Bible, using games, songs and Bible drills, etc.   Our children will be thrilled as they journey back to the beginning and stop to visit Adam, Eve, Cain and Abel; Noah; Tower of Babel; Abram and Lot at Sodom and Gomorrah; Hagar, Ishmael and Isaac.     We pray that they will understand Gods power in their life.  The Bible tells us in Isaiah 40:31 that people who hope in the Lord will be given strength.  Whatever our needs are, God will give us the strength to make it through when we trust in him.  
Please pray for the KOW ministry team as we encourage the children to weave faith into their life.   We pray that the lessons taught will pass from head knowledge of the Bible right into their heart and transform their life and ultimately their home.
We thank you for the opportunity that you give us to teach your children the Word of God.
