Weekend Curriculum

Unit Description: God gave Solomon great wisdom and made him king over His people. Solomon obeyed God and led the people in building the temple. Solomon learned that his own wisdom had limits, but God’s wisdom is limitless. Solomon reminds us of our need for Jesus, the sinless King who is true wisdom.

Big Picture Question: What does God know? God knows everything about the past, present, and future.

Elementary Memory Verse: Don't be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and turn away from evil. (Proverbs 3:7 CSB)

Early Kids Memory Verse: Fear the Lord and turn from evil (Proverbs 3:7 CSB)

This month in our Time of Giving, we get to be amazing friends by helping and encouraging our teachers and schools! 🏫

On August 23/24 weekend, we will honor all those who work in or for local schools during the adult worship services at each campus. We want to cover educators with prayers for the coming school year and send home a gift to express our appreciation for they do for the next generation.

Each campus is also doing something that benefits our local communities in August that we'll highlight during our offering time in kids services. See the details for each campus specific event below:

Westlink Campus: On Saturday August 9th at 9:00am at the Westlink Campus, we're having a free breakfast and free school supplies for teachers. We're calling it "Thankful 4 Teachers." For more information and ways to donate school supplies, click here.

Goddard Campus: On Tuesday August 5th from 5:30pm-7:30pm at the Goddard Campus, we're hosting "Backpack To School" where parents and students will be able to fill their backpacks full of school supplies. For more information and ways to donate, click here.

Valley Center Campus: We're excited to partner with our community for Hope for Valley Center-a back-to-school event serving over 750 students on Saturday, July 26 from 9:00am-12:00pm at Valley Center High School!
