Faith Formation for Elementary Students

Faith Formation in Elementary School

Welcome!  Elementary School is an exciting time in a child's life!  It is a time of great change...you learn to read...you learn to add, subtract, multiply, divide...you learn about fractions...you learn about American History.  You start forming meaningful friendships with other children.  And you start thinking about your relationship with God in new ways.  
Do you have a routine that includes making faith a part of your daily life with your family?
If your family has not yet set up routines and procedures that focus your life back to Christ...Elementary School is the time to do this!  Children in Kindergarten are at a FORMATIONAL place in their lives...where the actions that you model...and the routines that you set forth will FORM who they are as Christians!  This is much easier than the "correctional" path that one must take if you wait until your child is in Middle School to start a family routine!  
How do I faithfully parent my Elementary Student?
The pages included here are intended to help you fulfill your baptismal promises...through easy to do activities, routines, and more!  Hope will regularly provide you with in person opportunities to grow in faith together.  Our hope is that this site will enhance your in person experience by providing you with additional resources to do faith at home!
1)  In Person Opportunities
These opportunities are provided for you and your family to attend in order to grow in your faith. These may take place at Hope Lutheran Church or at an off site location, but they require attendance at the event in order to gain anything from them.  In Person events may include Sunday School, Stepping Stones events, Small Group meetings, Bible Studies, Confirmation classes and much more.  

2)  At Home Activities
These opportunities are provided for you and your family to participate in at your own time in your own space.  Click on the links above to discover helpful websites that will give you lots of ideas.  Also pay attention to the suggested idea of the week as each week we will provide a new faith formation resource for each age group.   
At Home activities for adults may include video clips, online bible lessons, opportunities to dive further into the scriptures for the week and more!
3)  Additional Resources
These are suggested resources to support you on your faith journey.  In each category you will find recommended books that you can purchase, online journal and news articles, blogs, and other helpful tools.
