Your new series in the Grapple curriculum is called Hide 'n' Seek, which raises questions about integrity, the fact that sin hurts everyone, the fact that God looks at the heart, and our responsibility to honor our parents. Here is an overview of the four lessons:
September 22 - Is It Okay if I Don't Get Caught?
September 29 - Is It Okay if Nobody Gets Hurt?
October 6 - Is It Okay if I Was Trying to Help?
October 13 - Is It Okay if My Friends' Parents Say It's Okay?
Here's this week's lesson link:
Hide 'n' Seek
Be sure to take time to check in with the kids, either during large group or small group. Ask how they're doing, how you can pray for them, and how they can pray for one another.

Stickers for Children's Serve Sunday
October 20 is Children's Serve Sunday, and that day in Sunday school will be very different from most. More to come on that!
In preparation, there will be a sheet of label stickers in your classrooms this week. Please make sure that every child gets a sticker before leaving. These stickers tell kids which items to bring to donate to Lighthouse Ministries on October 20.
Contact Jenny Fishback with any questions.
3rd-5th Retreat Registration Opens this Week!
Make sure to check out the new bulletin board in the middle of the hallway. Encourage all 3rd-5th graders to post their names on the board if they are coming to retreat, which is November 9-10.
To register, families can go to www.ccum.net/children for more information.
Self-Release
This year, I am experimenting with making self-release an opt-out rather than an opt-in. At 11am, you can allow all of your class to exit, whether "self-release" appears on their tags or not. Parents who do not want their children to self-release can indicate that, and we will put that on tags.
But remember - no need to dismiss anyone prior to 11am, unless a parent is there for them! Thanks!
