Easter…He is alive! What came next? On the road to Emmaus!

Crenshaw Kids!





When you take a hot bath, what happens to the mirror? [It gets foggy.]

That’s like what it is for us while we are on this earth. The things of God can be foggy. He can be mysterious.

God is not out to trick us. He is on our side. He wants to reveal Himself to you. He has plenty of clues for you, but are you listening? And...do we understand that at first the answer could be "foggy".
He will reveal to us His plan when He knows we are ready.


This week in Sunday School we talked about things that happened after Jesus rose from the dead.    Our focus was on the road to Emmaus.  


So what can we learn from this story?

Sometimes things happen to us that we can't understand or we find out the answer later on. But we do know that God loves us and He has given us a promise that He will always work things out for the good of those who love Him ( Romans 8:28) and my all-time favorite verse, reminds us that "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, " plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future."


Thank you to our teachers who serve without hesitation so that our children can hear God's word!   Thank you Miss Betsy!

Thank you May Lynn and Judi!


Thank you Dr. Horn and Miss Shiras for stepping in and helping out this week at a moments notice!



Miss Adrianna helped Indi build his "road" from Jerusalem to Emmaus...then he took a car instead of walking!   Su cute!

Thank you Miss Judi for reading the story to Milo while he works on his matching the shadow activity!

Calling all prayer warriors! As you pray today, please remember Ashleigh. Mark 11:24

Crenshaw Kids and families please keep our Ashleigh in your prayers.  Ashleigh was admitted into Children's Hospital at Richmond,  VCU on October 17.  Ashleigh joined us a few months ago in Sunday School and she needs our voices.   Ashleigh is in the 6th grade at Kenston and loves music and drama, cheering and just enjoys life with friends all the time! From Mom yesterday: Update on Ashleigh she is still dealing with pressure on her brain which is still causing a lot of things going on with her body. She is still having issues with talking and seems to be favoring her right side more than left side. She has had some occupational therapy and physical therapy should be in here today. The neurologist said that they will keep her on the medication for the pressure a couple of more days and may possibly have to do another mri at the end of the week to see how things are doing. We are seeing very small improvements and are taking things day to day right now. She hasn’t had anymore fever

“Snowbody” loves YOU like JESUS party! Isaiah 1:18. 100 plus Kids, teens and adults enjoyed June 14th fun!

Just like God can make a beautiful snowflake out of a speck of dust, He can make something beautiful out of us too when we go to Him for forgiveness and ask Him to cover our sins white as snow! “Come now, let us reason together,” says the LORD. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.”   Isaiah 1:18 Is that automatic?  No…we have to choose and be willing to take a bath or shower to get clean, don’t we?  It doesn’t just happen like an automatic human car wash! 1 John 1:9 says  “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” This means we have to ask; we have to admit we are wrong and we need God to make us right and clean.  When we do, He promises to forgive us and purify or cleanse us. When the snow falls, it covers things; it covers the ground, the leaves on the trees, our roofs and our cars.  Then everything looks white! Well, God
