She has been battling cancer for 4 years. Tumors on her lungs are not shrinking as hoped. Joyce's daughter, Betty, has a tumor on her thyroid that we believe is cancer. She has a consultation early December. Pray for healing and that they would open their hearts to Jesus. Update : The doctor believes her condition is auto-ammune. Vasculitis and a condition normally found in children. The veins become inflamed causing them to leak everywhere in the body. Her legs are still very painful. She is on prednizone for now. This condition can take up to 12 weeks to heal. She is at almost 3 weeks. Skip & Joyce Schwarz 11/19/24 Please pray for Saving Susan as we make some changes in our field trips this year. Our trip with the students at Mt Paran Christian School has been postponed until 2026. We are meeting today to talk about a new date for our March trip to Cambodia—the cost of flights and scheduling are causing us to pivot. God knows what we need to do. Thanks for your prayers. Also please pray for 2 of our next steps students—Narciso and Hugo in Guatemala—they are adulting and navigating how to make enough money to take care of themselves. I love that Saving Susan has a commitment to continue walking through life with these orphaned and vulnerable humans.

"Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to me...'" Matthew 19:14 Large Groups Mars Hill Kids has three large group environments; preschool, elementary (K-3) and Club 45 (4-5). Each week, large group leaders teach biblical truths through music, Bible teaching and creative media. We use a mix of live teaching and dynamic video elements to teach the Bible with age appropriate concepts that the children can apply. Small Groups Every Sunday, your child will attend the same small group classroom. This is a great way for the children to establish friendships and build relationships. Here, the topic for the week is introduced through age-appropriate activities. After the Large Group experience, they return to the classroom and are taught how to apply the weekly lesson to their lives. Curriculum Our mission is to partner with you as you bring up your children in the discipline and instruction of the Lord (Ephesians. 6:4). The Gospel Project consists of weekly lessons that help all ages dive deep into the big story of the Bible—God’s plan to rescue His people through His Son, Jesus Christ. Because we recognize that you are the primary discipler of your kids, we provide you with resources to continue spiritual conversations at home. Find out more by clicking the button below.
