Topics in WISE 2012

February topic- Honor using great faith stories of David's Life from the Old Testament books of 1 & 2 Samuel and some Karate moves mixed in to teach kids to honor God, those who are forgotten, parents and authorities. February closes with Honor stations on the 26th (karate moves, snow cones, safe board breaking, making honor belts and an honor video. Our goal & Mission this month will be to make nursing home valentines for a group that often gets forgotten and to qwork on honoring others like our parents and teachers.

Daniel helps us learn about doing right with great scripture stories of faith like Daniel in Babylon (Daniel 1)  The fiery furnace from Daniel 3, The writing on the wall (Daniel 5) and the well know Daniel in the lion's den from Daniel 6. On March 25th we will conclude with Lions Den stations. Our scripture memory verse will be "never tire of doing what is right" 2 Thess. 3:13.
