As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today (ESV) – Genesis 50:22

This verse, spoken by Joseph, tells us how God’s sovereignty used the evil done to Joseph to bring about God’s plan of good to save his family.  For Good News Club this fall, our Good News Clubs will be focusing on life of Joseph through the action-packed series entitled, “God’s Sovereignty: The Life of Joseph.”  

In this series, children will learn about how the Sovereign God is able to fulfill His promises even through difficult times.   Children will be asked to consider how Joseph faced being sold into slavery, being falsely accused and being forgotten while he was in prison, led to rise to being 2nd in power in Egypt, shows God’s incredible faithfulness through all this and how we can respond with His patience and perseverance to build the character that he need to work in us.  They will learn through Philippians 1:6 how God has began a good work in us and “will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ (ESV).”  

We invited you to join us this year as volunteers are still needed in several  of our clubs.  We need to both teachers and assistants for just one day a week (no club when school is not in session).  No experience needed, but a love for Jesus and kids are a must.   Please contact Doug at 701-200-4865 or email at: doug@ceffm.org

Finally, be in prayer that the kids would understand God’s sovereignty in the midst of hard times.
