June will be a spiritual and fun-filled journey for children to kick off the season of Pentecost! Children will learn about what it means to grow spiritually, as well as all kinds of growth that we experience from summer. Children will read Corinthians and Mark scriptures from the Lectionary calendar. We will engage with readings from “Common Prayer for Children and Families”- The Day of Pentecost Prayer, “When Pentecost Day arrived, they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages,” Acts 2:1-4.
Children will also engage using the lesson plans for Godly Play and crafts from Ministry to Children.
All children pre-K through 5th grade are welcome to join in the meeting on Zoom! Email Children’s Minister Liza Goodner at liza.goodner@stmartininthefields.org for the link.
