Parent Blurb Week 21
This week we talked about family. We may not have gotten to choose our family, but we can choose how we act in our families. We helped students discover ways they can contribute and play a role in their families. So, help your child set up some ways that they can take an active role in your family.
Parent Blurb Week 22
This week at Roots we talked about friendship. God created us to be friends to others. Friends aren’t there just to have fun with. Friends are there to celebrate the good things in our lives and also to help us through hard times. A good friend is selfless. This week, ask your child if they think they have good friends or not. Talk with them about ways that they can be a good friend to others.
Parent Blurb Week 23
This week, students took a spiritual gifts test and discovered what their spiritual gifts are. We encouraged them to figure out ways they can live out their spiritual gifts in their lives. Talk with your child this week and help them understand what their spiritual gifts mean on a deeper level. Also, help them think about different situations in which they can use their gifts in practical ways.
Parent Blurb Week 24
We all have talents and often times they are different from one another. Some are better at sports, while others are better at drawing, or some at music. Whatever our talents, we need to remember that God gave them to us and He wants us to use them for Him. Talk with your child this week about the things that they think might be their talents. Help them to discover how they can use those talents for God in their lives.
