10 THINGS PARENTS CAN DO DURING THIS LOCK DOWN WITH Your CHILDREN

*10 THINGS PARENTS CAN DO DURING THIS LOCK DOWN WITH Your CHILDREN (no matter how old they are)* - Fela Durotoye 

Hey Parents, we are on lockdown with our children ... and whilst this may be tougher on some parents than others, please remember that the lockdown restrictions are probably tougher on your kids.

However, please remember that in your lifetime, you probably will never again have another #lockdown ‘opportunity’ to give them your undivided attention so seize this lifetime opportunity to BOND with your family and create UNFORGETTABLE MEMORIES with your words and your actions.

This is the time to:
1. EAT together and PLAY together ... exercises, card games, board games, soccer.

2. CHAT with them ... ASK questions that will get them to talk, not just answer “Yes, No, Fine etc” . Create TRUST & a safe space for them to have open and honest conversations with you. Ask (not interrogate) with the genuine intent to learn more about them and LISTEN attentively.
3. Do HOUSE CHORES with them. Show them how to sweep, mop, wash, arrange properly. Doing house chores with them will give them a sense of dignity of labour.
4. Help out with their SCHOOL WORK online.
5. Tell them STORIES about your childhood.

6. Talk about THEIR DREAMS and reinforce it.

7. CORRECT their misbehavior with love, patience & kindness (not anger) and explain consequences of actions on the family especially at this time.

8. Establish the FAMILY VALUES and NORMS and the GROUND RULES that will help your family get through this season with LOVE, PEACE and JOY.
9. Explain what you do (at your WORKPLACE) and why it is important.

10. PRAY together and study GOD’S WORD together. Have a REGULAR time and place for your family prayer time.
So, let’s try to SEIZE EVERY MOMENT of this lockdown to create MAGICAL MEMORIES that you want them to remember for the rest of their lives.

Keep safe everyone, but more importantly ... love, laugh and keep hope alive.

*Please SHARE with a parent that you think this will help.*

RCCG SPECIAL THANKSGIVING SERVICE MAY 2020

Topic: Thank God for Calvary Text: Revelation 1:11-18 The greatest battle ever fought since the creation of man was fought at Calvary. It was a battle between the forces of darkness and Light. It seemed as if darkness won, but 3 days later, Light shone. What We Should Thank God For: 1. For the Blood He shed on Calvary. Through this Blood, our sins have been washed away. 1 John 1:7 The Blood is still giving us victory over satan. Revelation 12:10-11 The Blood also gives us access to God. Hebrews 10:19-22 Everyone of us now have access to the Holiest by virtue of the Blood. 2. The Healing Stripes of Jesus. 1 Peter 2:24, Isaiah 53:1-5 Jesus took a stripe for diseases yet undiscovered in addition to the 39 He took for categories of diseases already existing. 3. The Name of Jesus. Philippians 2:5-11, John 14:14 The Name has given us access to God's provision and deliverance. John 16:24 4. Victory over death.  Since Calvary, death has lost its sting. 1 Corinthians 15:54-57, Hebrews 2:14-...
