January Themes
Pre-K ~ A Baby and A Bush
Elementary ~ Wisdom
Our January Pre-K RidgeRunners theme is "A Baby and A Bush" We're learning through the story of Moses how God made us to do big things for him and that we can grow in strength by obeying his commands every day.
Bible Point: How can I do big stuff for God? I obey God more each day!
Key Verse: "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much..." Luke 16:10a
This January in Elementary RidgeRunners, we're learning how to make wise choices and how God loves to help us grow in wisdom!
Car Talk:
1. Why is making wise choices important to you?
2. What is harder for you to say: “I’m sorry,” “I was wrong,” or “You were right”?
3. Tell about a time you said something you wished you could take back.
Memory Verse:
“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” James 1:5
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 info@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.
