Hi KidSong Parents!
    Welcome to Week 3 of Advent! We have been having such a fantastic time celebrating the birth of Jesus! We've been singing carols and ringing jingle bells and playing with Nativity sets of all kinds - plush and action figures and ornaments and lacing cards. Your children are really taking the true Story of Christmas to heart!
    In Togetherland, kids have been participating in the Christmas story with crafts, drama, and games, and today is no different. They will hear about the shepherds telling everyone the Good News, and make some special crafts to remind everyone that Jesus is the best gift of all!
    In Konnect today, our special guest is none other than one of the Heavenly Host who appeared to the shepherds to announce the birth of the Savior, who would bring us Peace. Our theme is Peace Breaks Down Walls, and we see how God broke down the barrier of humanity by giving us Jesus, and He broke the walls of sin that separated us by His death. Jesus was "God with us", fully human and fully God, and He gave us peace. We'll explore that concept of peace as we go into the jungle and hear about the Peace Child, the only hope for warring tribes, and the redemptive analogy needed to bring them the Gospel. We'll celebrate it by making angel ornaments, and see how Linus reminds us about peace in the midst of chaos in a Charlie Brown Christmas. Our memory verse is Luke 2:14 "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth, peace, good will towards men."
     And don't forget, today we will be filming for our special Christmas Story video for Christmas Eve! If for some reason your child will not be there or does not get a chance to tell part of the story, contact Pastor Becky and we can try to set up an alternative time.
    Merry Christmas!
