THIS WEEK, we continue our January Family Experience series, UNBOXED and learn that “We can care about what God cares about!”, focusing on Matthew 6:19-24.
We invite you to join us on our YouTube channel (Canyon Creek Project) or Facebook live for Family Experience every Saturday at 11AM. Experience worship as a family through praising with your voice and watching and listening to the weekly lesson come alive!
“With the holiday season having just passed by, most kids still have the concept of giving and receiving gifts fresh on their minds. While many, if not all, of the gifts that were unboxed at Christmas will eventually fall into disrepair, gifts given by God will never fade! Through this “Unboxed” series, kids will discover what kinds of gifts those are, starting with the fact that everyone has special gifts! Then they will see how God can use those gifts to help others, among those gifts being special blessings from God, as well. Our gifts help us care about what God cares about, by focusing on heavenly things, and we can trust God with our gifts when we offer it up cheerfully!”
This week’s resources:
January 23: “We can care about what God cares about”

Experience this lesson through family worship:
Activity 1: Care Tag
* INSTRUCTIONS: Play a game of "Tag" where the family member that is "it" has to say "I care about you!" as they tag another person.
Activity 2: Sharing is Caring
* INSTRUCTIONS: Have bowls of a variety of snacks, as many as there are family members, if possible. Give each family member one type of snack, and put them in charge of passing them out to each other.
* Great job sharing with everyone! What do you think God cares about more, your snack or you sharing your snack?
