PARENTS

Parents: Partnering with us to make a greater impact!!

You are not alone!!! It is our deepest desire to partner with you in raising your children to love God, serve others and lead others to Christ! The church and family are the 2 greatest influences in the world. When those two influences combine, something synergistic occurs. Our efforts aren’t just doubled…they are multiplied. When the church and family come together, we believe it has the potential to reshape the next generation.

So what does that look like???

Bring your child to CPCC every Sunday where they connect with the same leader and same kids each week!
Communicate with your small group leader. They are your child’s biggest cheerleader and encourager. They want to support you as a parent in helping your child grow in Christ.
Use the Parent Resources we have on our website: God Time Cards, Scripture Challenges, and other materials.
Visit any of our KidsPointe areas to see exactly what your child experiences on Sundays. You’d be amazed at the cool things going on here!!
Sub for your child’s small group leader when they are absent. You get a great glimpse of what a blessing it is to serve with our kids.
Partner and get involved when we offer special events for our kids.
Read the bulletin and E letters for important information throughout the year.

KidsPointe May Virtue

Think about all you saw when you stepped outside this morning. Was the sun shining? Did you hear birds or see squirrels making the most of their morning? Did you take a deep breath?

Without our thinking about it, life happens.

The sun keeps shining. The seasons change. We have air to breathe.

From the beginning, when God created the world, He set systems in motion. If He decided to ignore those, our world would quickly turn chaotic. God takes responsibility for what He creates. Even when we failed Him, He promised a way of escape through Jesus. He made good on this promise, and after we take our last breath we can trust that we’ll be with Him forever. God has proven that you can trust Him with every moment of your life.

But God doesn’t want for us to move through our life simply trusting Him. He wants us to become more like Him by showing others that we can be trusted as well. Every day, you have opportunities to take what God has given to you: your stuff, your words, your relationships and use them wisely. When you respond to God with the abilities that He has given to you, you are responsible.

And when you are responsible with a little, the Bible says you will be given more: more opportunities, more relationships, more ways that you can use what God has given you to reflect His character to the world around you. Our monthly memory verse says it this way, “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much,” (Luke 16:10, NIV).

Our series is called, “Great Expectations—will you win Trust?” It plays out like this: God has proven He can be trusted. When we trust Him and we respond to Him with our abilities, then we are responsible. And when we are responsible, we live a good story. We are a light to others. They will see our good works and glorify God because of how they see Him at work in us.

Virtue: Responsibility—showing you can be trusted with what’s expected of you.

Memory Verse: “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much.” Luke 16:10, NIV
