Tualatin & Byrom Students


Tualatin and Byrom students are totally engaged as teacher Sheila Gardner shows a video to illustrate the transformation that happens in our lives when we trust Christ as Savior. Sheila also read from her Bible the places the Apostle Paul visited on his journeys, while the children plotted the cities on their own maps.

A few weeks ago the students planted beans in plastic cups filled with dirt. Sheila made the analogy of planting seeds of God's Word in their lives. Each week they check to see any progress. The little plants are just starting to pop up, so the kids think that's great! They planted some extras in case new kids came . . . they were just put into use . . . so very good planning! Interactive lessons are important to keep the kids learning and growing.
NEW CLASS BEGINNING APRIL 15th in LAKE OSWEGO!

Beginning Wednesday, April 15, the Lake Oswego Christian Center will host a class for Bryant Elementary School students!

This is an answer to prayer which began last summer--that there would be 30 schools with PREP4Kids classes during this school year. Pray for them as they begin.
