Family Resources

Personal connection comes through honesty. The psalmists understood this better than anyone. From the pages of the Psalms leap lament and joy, anger and mercy—honest cries to the God who hears us and knows us. During this series, you and the kids you lead will discover more from the Psalms about the unchanging character of God—the loving, caring, faithful shepherd—and your identity as His kids, wonderfully and purposefully created. Together you’ll come to God like the psalmists of old with singing, shouting, and crying out your prayers and praises to the One who is worthy!
 

Every Sunday at Noon, we post ways to Continue the Conversation that we started at EC Kids that week. Your family can use these conversation starters on the way home, at lunch after church, or during the week!

Use the links below to find our social media pages and follow us for weekly updates, pictures, and more!

Our mission at Eastland Kids is to partner with parents to build the foundations of faith. One way we partner with you is through a monthly newsletter!

On the first Monday of the month, each month, I will send out a newsletter highlighting upcoming events, sharing cool resources for kids and parents, inviting you to jump in on the conversation of what your kids are learning each week, and giving you some encouragement, because discipling kids is hard! 

This digital take-home page will help you answer two questions each week:
1. What did my kids learn on Sunday?
2. How can I keep the conversation going?

Scan the QR code next to your child's classroom, or check here for the take-home pages for the whole series! 

Helping your Child take their next steps of faith can be difficult when you are not sure what to say. The "Next Steps Resource for Kids" will provide a walkthrough guide to leading your child to Christ and how to take the step of faith to be baptized. 

Check out the "Bible 101 for Families" resource for information on what the Bible is, how it was created, and a step-by-step guide to teach your children how to use the Bible! 

Check out this list, which will help you easily find some of the best resources out there for discipling your kids that are Biblically accurate and age-appropriate.

As a church, we are doing a Bible reading plan together through our church wide Connection Journals! Inside will be daily reading prompts and space to journal your thoughts, prayers, and insights about the week's reading!

The weekly readings will follow along with the sermon series - but they aren’t just for adults! These journals are not only a great way to connect with other people at church, but a GREAT family resource for talking about the Bible together!
