Early Childhood
Hi again!
I hope this email finds you well! Attached below are the Early Childhood material for April 5. In our Early Childhood class, we do not cover The Crucifixion. This is because some of the children in that class are unsettled by the details in the story, but you know your kiddos best.

Elementary
As we continue to maintain safe physical distancing guidelines and shift our worship services to online format, I'm passing on some resources to help your family worship together and experience the significance of this important season. I must admit - I'm having a hard time accepting the fact that we won't be worshiping in person together during Holy Week and Easter Sunday. It seems completely antithetical to everything I've known.

Dear Church Family,
In light of Governor Greg Abbott's executive order, the elders of Ecclesia Clear Lake decided to extend the suspension of public gatherings through May 3rd. We will continue to stream our prayer and sermon time every Sunday morning at 10 a.m. Also, we have added two additional online gatherings: Prayer Chapel (Wednesdays @ 8:00 p.m.) and Going Deeper (Sundays @ 11:00 a.m.). You can find more information and register for the online gatherings on our website (ecclesiaclearlake.org/events).
If you need prayer, email us at prayer@ecclesiaclearlake.org. If you or anybody you know needs extra support, please contact one of the elders.

Hi everyone!
I am interning for Karis while she is on maternity leave! Both Karis and sweet baby Oliver are home and getting settled. Attached are worship materials for you to use with your children today. Like Karis said, the Early Childhood material is perfect for toddler-kinder and utilizes the Jesus Storybook Bible. Get it here if you do not have a Jesus Storybook Bible. I am thinking and praying for all of you and your families during this time.
Let me know if I can help in any way,
Anna Jane

One of my favorite songs we sing at church is Steadfast, by Sandra McCracken. Commenting upon the song, McCracken said it's all about "God's defiance against all that is broken and his ultimate victory over those things." This song is balm to my soul during this uncertain time. Markets are crashing. Hospitals are overwhelmed. Many are feeling isolated and alone. And yet, God is steadfast, God is here, we are not alone, God still reigns, and God's love endures forever.
I encourage you to spend a few minutes listening to Steadfast. Invite the Spirit to remind you of what is real, what is true, and what is everlasting. Invite the Spirit to comfort and encourage you.
Please, if you need prayer or encouragement, please reach out to me.
Sincerely,
Pastor Coby

Hello, Family,
I hope this finds you safe, healthy and Peaceful, my friends. Please know I am covering you and yours in prayer as we continue to navigate this season together. Attached are worship materials for you to utilize for your kiddos tomorrow. Again, the Early Childhood material is appropriate for toddler- kinder (although my family all participated in the lesson last week and my older elementary boys were blessed by it!) and utilizes the Jesus Storybook Bible. There is a youtube link to the story if you don’t have a Jesus Storybook Bible. The elementary material will go along with the lectionary text and help to spur conversation with your school aged kiddos.
God be near and very present in your family, friends.
Much Love,
Karis
