LOVE Week is July 27-August 3! LOVE Week is a special time in our church where we serve in our communities. If you’re interested in serving as a family, you can find family-friendly events HERE.

  • Say, “We can help others during LOVE Week — it’s when our church shows God’s love by helping others. But we can also help others all the time. Let’s learn some ways we can help people around us!”
  •  Read each prompt and encourage your toddler to respond.
