Revelation 4:11
Colossians 1:16-17
We sinned.
Since the time of Adam and Eve, everyone has chosen to disobey God. (Romans 3:23)
The Bible calls this sin. Because God is holy, God cannot be around sin. Sin separates us from God and deserves God's punishment of death. (Romans 6:23)

We respond.

Child Safety Reminders
Never be alone 1:1 with a child.
To protect both you and the kids, adults should never be alone 1:1 with any child, except their own.
Contact Pastor Adam if a parent needs to be contacted or for a discipline issue.
Sometimes parents need to be contacted if a child is having a difficult time. Please notify Pastor Adam of any concerns or discipline issues you have.
Don't try to physically restrain a child.
Don't attempt to pull, grab, or hold a child to get them to go or do what you want them to do.
Watch out for hazards.
Make sure your area/room is safe from hazards like holes to fall in, electrical cords to trip over, and sharp objects.
