Kindie Korner Adventures

As a primary department we will be focusing on the Christmas story and learning some scripture from Luke 2.

Kindergarten will be learning:

Luke 2:10-11

¹⁰ But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. ¹¹ Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.

Please help your child practice at home!
