The Single Units are a four-session stand-alone unit designed to supplement your FaithSteps curriculum. The Single Units may be used with regular FaithSteps Sunday school teaching plans; as stand-alone resources for other children's Bible study opportunities; or, to complement and give greater depth to other children's curriculum. Single Units offer a refreshing source for varying children's learning experiences, while retaining the benefits of an established curriculum series.
Join the Team! Helping Children Embrace Missions
This unit uses the familiar image of "teams" to address the subject of missions. Our children live in a world of teams. Uniforms come in preschool sizes these days--on the soccer field, in the band room, and even in the classroom. The word "team" creates a picture that children of all ages comprehend. Using the image of a team helps us explain how the church does God's work in the world. The following sessions present numerous opportunities and resources to help you nurture and practice compassion as your group learns how God wants us to care. God's mission has no borders. We embrace missions in a child's classroom and in places we have never seen. We can embrace missions anywhere, at any time. We can begin right now.
Session One looks at how the church needs everyone to work together to share God's love. Session Two focuses on the truth that we should show love in all we say and do. Session Three teaches us that God's mission includes everyone. Session Four demonstrates what can happen when we work together to help others.
