April Theme: Trust
Hey Parents!
This April in Elementary RidgeRunners, we're learning that God is the same yesterday, today and forever and that we can always trust him to be with us no matter what. Our Li'l RidgeRunners theme is "Esther - The Brave and Beautiful Queen" and we'll be learning how God can help us be brave.
Children's Rooms
Check-in for all ages will be at the kiosks just inside the RidgeRunners entrance doors.
Elementary RidgeRunners (K-5th) enter to the right of the check-in area. Li'l RidgeRunners (Infant-Pre-K5) head down the hallway past the Elementary room to the left. Toddlers are straight ahead. Take a right turn for Pre-K and a left turn for Infants. Infants and Toddlers will share the Toddler Room for the 9:30 service.
How check-in works:
- Accept your invite and sign up for Realm Connect. (If you have not received an invite to Realm, please email clay@theridgecolumbus.com and request to be added.)
- Request to join the appropriate groups for your kids within the Connect app (ex. 2nd grade, toddlers, etc.).
- Sign in via the app on your way to church on Sunday, and use the QR code to print your name tags when you arrive.
- Alternately, sign in and print name tags at one of several laptop or tablet kiosks when you arrive. You will see the RidgeRunners logo on the doors to the check-in station.
- Escort your kids to their rooms by following the signage and moving through the children's area hallways in a counter-clockwise direction.
- Pick up kids after the service by entering and exiting the hallways in the same counter-clockwise fashion. When picking up kids from the Elementary RidgeRunners room, please proceed all the way into the room from the check-in area and exit through either the door to the back hallway or through the doors to the parking lot. Please avoid heading back through the check-in area so that we can avoid over-crowding in the front hallway

Car Talk:
*What is something in your life that is hard right now?
*What is something in your life that you don't understand?
*What would it look like to trust God with those things? (Ask God for help, remember he's with you, let go of worrying, trust that he will take care of you)
Memory Verse:
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:5-6
