Kidzone: July 3 Update

Good Morning, Kidzone Families,

I hope and pray you each had a wonderful Canada Day holiday! Hopefully some outdoor fun in the sun, good friends or family were part of your day. We are so blessed to call this great nation our home!

Now that you’re on summer break, maybe you’re looking for some fun ideas or challenges to complete as a family? Check out the attached “Summer Family Challenge” for some GREAT ideas that lead to meaningful connection time together, or for a blank board where you can create your OWN Summer Family Challenge! 

Please don’t forget to also check out our resource page for some helpful updates for talking to your kids about racial justice and what it means to be anti-racist, along with some great children’s literature lists that highlight teaching about this. We have read a couple of them during our lunch-time stories and will continue to in the coming weeks.

REGISTRATION FOR ONLINE CAMP IS OPEN! Please note: our STEM Camp options are full, but there is still a limited amount of space in our Jungle Beat Music Camp, and unlimited space in our BOLT VBS.  Please head to www.thebridgemarkham.com/summercamps for information and for the registration link. We look forward to these being a blessing for those seeking opportunities for their kids to connect and grow with God and with others this summer! (faith-based camp options are marked).

As usual, our weekly Kidzone updates and Sunday experiences are updated on our WEBSITE by Friday at 4pm. You can find all that you will need for your child, according to the headings, by visiting: www.thebridgemarkham.com/kidzoneonline/. Check out our Worship Song of the Week, Weekly Kidzone Klub devotionals, and more. You can even utilize the new Bridge App to receive Kidzone Online updates by turning on notifications! For Sunday ministry materials, simply scroll down to ‘Kidzone Sunday’ and click on your child’s age group. These resources are a GIFT to help empower you- there is no expectation tied to them! It’s our heart’s desire to help equip you to disciple your kids at home.

Please Note: 
•    Kidzone Klub devotionals are BACK! This week we are starting devotionals in the Fruit of the Spirit that will follow the same timeline as the bridge summer sermon series. Don’t miss these on Instagram or on https://thebridgemarkham.com/kidzoneonline/
•    We continue to gather for lunch-time stories on Instagram LIVE on Wednesdays at 12:30pm for the summer! If you or your child would like to be a guest reader, please email Christy at [email protected]!

We are praying for you all and are here to support you if you have any needs or requests. Please don’t hesitate to reach out: we love you!

In His Love,
Pastor Shauna
