Encouraging Bible Verses for the New School Year


Hello Reader -

I hope this email finds you well and enjoying the last few days of summer! I can hardly believe that back-to-school is just one week away for my kids. It’s been a whirlwind of a summer, especially with helping out at two Vacation Bible Schools. We’ve had such a wonderful time, and I found myself relying heavily on many of my favorite Sunday school crafts.

In addition to crafts, we kept busy with a variety of group games. We enjoyed everything from trampoline games to outdoor games with water, and when the weather didn’t cooperate, we turned to rainy day and indoor games. It’s been a busy but fun-filled summer!

As we gear up for the new school year, I wanted to share some encouraging Bible verses to inspire and uplift your children. These verses are perfect for reminding them of God’s presence and strength as they embark on a new adventure:

  1. Philippians 4:13: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
  2. Jeremiah 29:11: "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
  3. Proverbs 3:5-6: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."

We have additional Bible verses each with a a school supply to pack - pack kindness, friendship, wisdom, etc. To make these verses even more special, I’ve come up with a fun back-to-school craft: a DIY brown bag backpack craft where your kids can place these encouraging Bible verses. This craft is perfect for doing at home or in Sunday school, so feel free to share it with your teachers!

I hope this craft brings joy and encouragement to your children as they start the new school year. Here are the links to the crafts and games we enjoyed this summer:

Wishing you and your family a blessed and exciting start to the school year!
