REFORMATION DAY AT YOUR CHURCH

Did you know that there is a great alternative to Halloween for Christians?  October 31st was the day that Martin Luther pinned the 95 thesis on the Wittenburg Door in Germany in 1517 igniting the Protestant Reformation throughout the world.  

Many of our most cherished beliefs that we Bible-believing Christians hold to such as Scripture Alone, Christ Alone, By Grace Alone and to God Alone Be the Glory were rejuvenated by the Reformation.  Please go to the article on CMI's web page "Reformation Day at Your Church" for more details.  The celebration of Reformation Day at your church and in your home can be a God-honoring way to shun the satanic excesses of Halloween.

Children's Ministry International has had a study book on the Reformation available for some time  called, "HEROES OF THE REFORMATION".  We updated the book last year adding 6 Reformers and improving the crafts and appendices.  Now every major Reformer from John Wycliffe through Jonathan Edwards has a visualized story emphasizing his role in the Protestant Reformation.   You'll love learning about the lives of John Hus, John Calvin, Martin Luther, John Knox, John Bunyan and others.  

Like all of CMI's materials this book is reusable, non-dated, non-graded, and for multiple ages.  It is written for children from kindergarten through 6th grade although we have found that adults love it too! 

This book will really spark up a Reformation Party with pictures and stories.  There are lots of ideas about how to incorporate this book in your celebration of Reformation Day at your church at the end of October.  In the appendices we have given lots of information about the satanic origins of Halloween and how we can redeem this devilish night in a celebration of our Reformation Heritage.

LOOKING AT THE UPCOMING "ADVENT SEASON" The Christmas Advent Season will soon be here!  Celebrating Advent gives our children the true origin of Christmas and the Incarnation of Christ.  Throughout the Old Testament we see stories telling of this upcoming event.  Let your children see why saints such as Mary and Joseph,  Zechariah and Elizabeth (parents of John the Baptist), Simeon and Anna (at the temple dedication of Jesus) in the Gospel of Luke so looked forward to the coming Messiah because of their knowledge of the Old Testament signs pointing to Christ.  An Advent Series Why not celebrate Advent in a special way this season?  Children's Ministry International (CMI) has Advent materials called "THE JESUS FAMILY TREE" for your church and home.  In each of the packets there are colorful symbols in which you can construct a "JESSE TREE....the Family Tree of Christ".  The symbols represent stories from the Old and New Testament that show of Christ's coming to earth as Lord and Savior.  Advent Family Devotions There is a special family devotional addition that has a symbol and story for everyday of Advent that is larger than our church product, "JESUS' FAMILY TREE..ADVENT FAMILY DEVOTIONS", which has lessons for four weeks of Advent.  We have also introduced a coloring book to help in the teaching at only $3.00 each with discounts for larger orders. You'll be amazed at how your children will rejoice to see Jesus in so many stories pointing to His Birth as the God-man.  You'll want to use our materials over and over again each Advent to reinforce this theme. You'll want to look at these materials now and take advantage of the discount to get 10% off!  DISCOUNT CODE:  REFORM06   **************************************************************************************************** HOME DEVOTIONS AND FAMILY ALTARS In the July/August edition of EQUIP magazine many of you saw an article written by CMI Director, Brad Winsted on, "THE LOST ART AND PRACTICE OF FAMILY DEVOTIONS"   CMI has just offered seminars on "Family Worship" for churches to help "jump-start" family devotion programs for your congregations.  Daily Family Devotions CMI also offers devotional guides for individuals who want to have a comprehensive program of prayer, songs, Bible stories and learn the basics of the Christian faith as found in the Westminster Confession.
