May Theme: Peace

Hey Parents! 

This May in Elementary RidgeRunners, we're learning that God gives us peace and asks us to be peacemakers. Our Li'l RidgeRunners theme is "Standing for God - The story of David & Goliath" and we'll be learning how our heart matches God's heart when we stand for Him.

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:

  1. 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.)
  2. Request to join the appropriate groups for your kids within the Connect app (ex. 2nd grade, toddlers, etc.).
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Escort your kids to their rooms by following the signage and moving through the children's area hallways in a counter-clockwise direction.
  6. 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:

*Why is peace more important than winning an argument?

*What is something you can do to make peace between you and your friends? What about when you and your friends have trouble with someone else?

*Your family is the most important place you can bring peace because it is where God has placed you to grow. How can you keep from fighting with your parents? What about your brother or sister?

Memory Verse:

“If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.” Romans 12:18
