    • Cain and Abel were the first babies, the first family with Adam and Eve. We learned this week that from the beginning of time, family has been hard. Sin causes dysfunction and problems.  Cain became so angry with his brother, he murdered him. The children understood that murder is a sin. It was a bit harder to understand that pushing or hitting , even for a cause, are sins. We pray every day that the Lord would strengthen us so that we might do what is right. We know we will fail because we are sinful. Then, we pray for forgiveness. Jesus has done it all for us! We know we have His forgiveness and heaven awaits us!

    • This week learned that our brains house our feelings.  All of our feelings are ok!  Our actions need to be ok too.  Check out the parent videos that will help you understand what we are learning in our Thrive Time!  August Thrive Video      September Thrive Video  I recognize that they are a little bit longer, but they are so, so good!  

    • We continued learning our song for the All School Sing this Sunday, September 14.  See above for the splits.  All students are invited to attend and sing with us.  Children will sit with their families and come to the front when invited.  Here is a link to the song that we will sing.  The 3K and 4K students will learn the refrain which is the very first verse of the song.  It repeats two more times throughout the song.  Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.  Please make every effort to attend...they know the song so well!!

    • As we begin a new school year, a few reminders:
      • Don't forget to sign your child in every day at the stand by the door.
      • Keep practicing independence at home!  We put our gym shoes on for the first time, and it is HARD!  Practice putting on shoes and SOCKS by themselves.
      • Ask questions!  We are here to help.  No silly questions!

    • Each year Emanuel supports a mission project.  This year is no different.  A mission envelope will be sent home at the beginning of the week.  If you choose to support the mission project, please send the envelope back in your child's folder.  Mr. Fuerstenau will include all of the mission information in his update!  Make sure to check it out!
