Recently a parent from New Life wrote us this letter about the Parent Cue's that we give out monthly. I wanted to share it with our parents and volunteers because it's both encouraging and inspiring. Enjoy!
Dear Rosie,
Just wanted to reach out and say thanks to you and your kids ministry team. Let me explain why I'm particularly thankful.
A few weeks ago one of your team members gave me a Parent Cue. I've seen these sheets of paper in the past but this time I wanted to read every single word on the page. I was particularly motivated because I had been thinking about what I can do with my kids as we observe our Sabbath.
The Parent Cue gave me great ideas! My favorite one was how it suggested taking Isaiah 1:17 and singing it to the tune of "farmer in the dell" and then singing it with your child.
So first I looked up the verse and I started singing it to myself and in seconds had it memorized because of the tune. I then sang it to my kids as we played and sang it to them as I gave them a shower and soon enough they were singing it as well!
We were also given immediate opportunity to apply the verse since my two kids started to fight over some toys. Learning to do what's right came in handy.
So that's it. Thanks again to you and your team! But that one little act of giving out resources you made a deposit into the spiritual atmosphere in the Sevilla home.
