“In the Beginning … Jesus” is the study we’ll be doing this year. The Bible is one complete true story that pro-
gressively reveals God’s redemptive plan, which comes to complete fulfillment in the Person and work of Jesus Christ. In the
Beginning … Jesus begins with a historical mystery—Jesus’ death on the cross—and asks the questions: “What really hap-
pened here?” “Why did Jesus die?” and “Who did it?” To find the answers to these questions, the study goes to the beginning
of the Bible narrative in Genesis and moves chronologically through the OT text as students search for clues that foreshadow
the coming of Jesus and His redemptive work on the cross. Special emphasis is given to showing that the Bible is God’s story
from beginning to end and that Jesus is the key to understanding the story.
 We’ll begin the year with an emphasis on Haiti. We’re

REMEMBERING GOD
As parents, we’re instructed
to pass on to our children
the memory of all the things
the Lord has done for us; as
we rise, as we go to sleep,
as we walk by the way, we
are to instruct our children
about God. It is our hope
Please continue reviewing the previous weeks’ verses as well as introducing new.
to include memorable mo-
ments of truth in Kid’s Club in
our traditional Bible memori-
zation time.
Since we will be spend-
ing more time in creating
memorable and teachable
This year we seek to memorize a large portion of scripture,
moments at Kid’s Club, we are
asking the parents to be ac-
countable with your children
for the monthly memory
verses. You may check off the
verses when your child has
successfully committed it to
memory. Simply sign and return
the form the following month.
Children will be rewarded, both
at Kid’s Club and in their future
as the Word takes hold in their
hearts and guides them on
straight paths.

Schedule for Elementary Kids’ Club Memory Verses √

9/23 What Happened Here??? He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and
familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their
faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Isaiah 53:3

9/30 Back to the Beginning Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we
considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted.
Isaiah 53:4

10/07 God Creates His Image Bearer But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for
our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon
him. And by his wounds we are healed. Isaiah 53:3-4
