Raising a Moral Child November 13, 2009

Hello Everyone … Our LG is on Facebook, look for an invite soon!

We had an awesome time fellowshipping and learning how to raise a moral child.  I can’t wait to hear how you were able to apply this into your relationship with your children!

Prayer Request

Shannika- Please pray for her son Malik, he was ill

Dawn- Please continue to pray for the Martinsen family and the loss of their little girl

Church Family- We have put our home up for sale and we are praying for a buyer! We will share more with you during our next session. :0)

Next session- 

The next session will be on Saturday November 21 st at 11:00 am.  Due to Seek Night being on Friday we needed to find a different day and time.  We will be reviewing last weeks homewor assignment.  For those of you who do not have your books the questions were how providing the moral or practical “why” of instruction helped your child with a right response ?
If your child is characterized by asking why, note whether giving the moral reason helps curb that behavior. Determine into which of the three categories your child’s why questions fall:

*the why of curiosity (non-moral)
*the why of comprehension (moral)
*the why of challenge (moral defining)

Remember to support your moral reasons with Scripture according to the child’s level of understanding.  Also, please read and be ready to discuss the next session entitled Right Beginnings.

Ladies Night

Ok, we are set for November 21st at 6:30pm.  I wanna take a poll on what you would like to do either dinner and a movie or movie and dessert.  Let me know if you are coming and what you think by Wednesday so I can make reservations if needed. 

Theme

The theme will be brunch.  Bring your favorite dish.  K and I will provide fruit and beverages. Tell us what you are going to bring by commenting below.  See you Saturday!
