Easter Family Resources
Easter Family Resources
I believe our RHC families carry a deep desire to help their young children understand the gospel message. Jesus is the answer to everything our children will face in life now and eternity. How can we help plant the seed or water the seed, that the Holy Spirit will make grow? Here are some book resources I found on the Village Church website that I think can help deepen that understanding for our young ones.
