Promotion Sunday This Week
Plan to arrive a few minutes earlier than usual this Sunday to allow time to find your child's classroom and meet their new teachers as kids are "promoted" to the next grade this week.
Please note:
- Nursery and toddler classes are fluid. Kids can be officially promoted as they become ready (as compared to a school year timeline).
- Preschool kids must:
- Be 3-years-old by Sept. 1, 2026
- Have not yet attended kindergarten
- Be potty trained
- Able to participate in a more structured classroom setting
- If your child has not yet potty trained and/or able to participate apporpriately, they should remain in the toddler room until they are ready. At any time in the year that they are ready, they can move up.
- Elementary kids will be recognized by the grade they will be in for the '26-'27 school year.
- 5th graders are ready to THRIVE! Click here for information about 5th graders moving up to THRIVE Student Ministry.
As always, if you have questions, concerns, or special circumstances, please reach out.
Sunday, June 7
In June, we will be learning about Jesus as a healer starting in John 1 with His second miracle. We are all dead in our sins, but Jesus provided the way to save us by dying for our sin and rising again. Everyone who repents and trusts in Him is saved from death and will live forever with God.
Summer Offering Project
Again this summer Oakwood kids get to bless campers attending Royal Family Kids Camp with our prayers and offering project. This offering project will go towards purchasing a water bottle for each camper to decorate with Scripture and keep.
Popsicle Pop Ups
Miss Sarah and I will be hosting three Popsicle Pop Ups throughout the summer on the 15th of each month. The time and place will "pop up" later! I encourage all families to engage relationally outside the building and foster a culture of invitation, presence, and hospitality.
Take a grab-and-go outreach kit to host a simple, relational pop-up in the community!
