Home and church have a common calling: the spiritual nurture of children. In an effort to build bridges between the nurturing going on in the home and the church, the following suggestions are offered:
1. Keep informed about what your child is learning each week. Access each ministry curriculum link (see below) to determine what passages, topics, and memory verses have been discussed and learned.
2. During the week use those same passages for family devotions. Reread the story and ask questions. In some cases review questions are already provided. You may wish to schedule this review the day or two after the child has first been introduced to it. For example: Schedule your review of Sunday Morning Discipleship lessons on Monday or Tuesday. Note: Where available it would be important to read through the whole written lesson so that you know what major points have been emphasized. This will help you know what to reinforce.
3. Discuss memory verses your child has been asked to learn. Be sure they understand what they are memorizing. Then encourage mastery of these verses by reviewing them each day.
