RENDEZVOUS

Comprehensive Curriculum Readied for Camps

by Bev Paulson

As a Sunday School teacher, parent, or youth worker, have you ever wondered what the kids in your care really know? Do they shine in telling the story of David or Joseph but have no clue where they fall chronologically, how each reveals God’s character and pictures salvation—or why they should care?

The Mission now has a five-year curriculum presenting a comprehensive view of the Bible, based on New Tribes Mission material, "Creation to Christ." Each of the fourth through ninth grade weeks’ material presents a segment of Scripture together with review and overview. "Telescoping" the material will allow campers to see how characters and stories fit together into a salvation portrait.

God’s character is revealed through God’s Word. What a joy! Bible teachers will have material, resources, activities, and a training session. Would you like in on the thrill of teaching? Call the Mission office—we can find a place to fit your schedule and gifting.

Idea for Camper Scholarships

Jerry and Sherry Davis have an idea to share for you who are concerned with offering scholarships to camp. They have made up a little book of verses that applicants memorize. The verses correlate with the curriculum and are age appropriate. In this manner, kids invest themselves. Call the Mission office if you’d like more information. Thanks, Jerry and Sherry!
