Discipleship
Alliance Kids
Alliance Kids debuted Discovery Land curriculum for children (infants–sixth grade) as well as the One Page! Alliance Kids is partnering with Discovery Land to add weekly Alliance Missions content to the rich, biblical component of Discovery Land curriculum so that Alliance kids across the country can learn the DNA of the C&MA, hear about Alliance projects and international workers around the world, and experience how they, too, fit into Great Commission living! We really do believe in All of Jesus for All the World, and that includes children!
RMD is offering a $200 grant to churches purchasing the Discovery Land curriculum, and a $100 grant for purchasing One Page!. To request a grant please send proof of purchase to sthorson@rmdcma.com.
Third Thursday: No Meeting in June
There will be no Third Thursday connection call in June. Instead, we will resume again with our quarterly topical call in July. In the meantime, head over to the RMD Youth Leader Resource page, which is full of great content, resources, and ideas. As always, feel free to reach out to Chris or Harry for anything else you might need.
