Summer is winding down and it’s time for kids to start thinking about going back to school! How about you? Could you use a little education yourself? Consider joining Family Matters, a Tysons community group for parents of young children. They meet Sundays, 9:00 am – 10:15 am in Community Room B (1st floor).
Family Matters is a place where parents can share their parenting experiences, ask each other questions, and learn from Teachers while enjoying a cup of coffee together. This is a great place to build supportive, Christ-centered friendships with other parents and be affirmed in your role as your child’s primary faith trainer. The group also participates in service projects and encourages use Kid’s Quest curriculum resources to build Christian character at home.
The new ministry year kicks off Sunday, September 11, with a new DVD series called “Sacred Parenting,” featuring author Gary Thomas. Parenting a child is an in-depth course on spiritual formation, expressly designed by God to shape your soul in ways you cannot imagine. What if one of God’s primary intentions for you as a parent isn’t about successfully raising perfect children, but about you becoming more holy? Sacred Parenting helps you look at parenting from a different perspective. In this video group study, Gary Thomas offers a roadmap to spiritual growth through the children that God has given you to parent. Sacred Parenting will help you learn how God can transform dirty diapers, a toddler’s tantrums, and a teenager’s silence in order to transform you into a person who reflects the image of Christ. No registration is required.
