Kids Church Offrering - Philippines
Each week, Kids church collects an offering for the Mangyan Tribes of Oriental Mindoro in the Philippines. We have built up a connection with the ministry Love Beyond Boarders, and have partnered with them and Pastor BJ to bring the hope and love of Christ to unreached people.
Current Collection:
Plates and Cutlery: We are raising money to provide a plate and cutlery set for every child. Currently, these kids are using whatever they can find in the garbage to eat their food from. Without soap, cleaning their hands to eat with or the item the food is on (plate/tupperware/stovetop lid/etc) is very near impossible. $20 will provide a plate and cutlery set for 1 child.
Kettles: $15 will provide a family with a new kettle. Kettles are using to make coffee, often the only the meal of the day. Many of these kettles are wearing out or have holes, meaning not even coffee is an option for food in a day.
Past Collections:
- Hammocks to get kids sleeping off the ground and mud
- 100+ buckets full of rice, salt, sardines, biscuits, instant coffee, and noodles. The buckets re and answered prayer and allow the tribes to go and bring water back to their homes

LESSONS
Each link above includes both the Large Group and Small Group portions of the lesson for that date. The Large Group leader will lead your class in the worship portion (generally the first portion of the lesson) and the Bible story portion and the Small Group Leaders will do the rest with their class in their small groups.
CRAFTS/ACTIVITY SUPPLIES
Activity Pages for each week will be in a bin labeled for your specific class. Each bin will have the correct number of papers and supplies for the number of kids in your class. Supplies can be found in the craft room in Room 200 at the end of the hallway. Feel free to use any of the "extra supplies" in the room. We ask that you return all class baskets and extra supplies to the room again after the service.
