Preschool Newsletter
A Preschool Teacher at Brentwood Baptist Church is a valued person and leader. Your task is an easy one:
- Love the children.
- Teach the children about God and Jesus.
- Accept the children as an entrusted gift.
You have the opportunity to work alongside parents to lay a foundation of spiritual development. What an awesome privilege and gift!
Many Sundays I see children running to their rooms ahead of their parents. They are looking for you! What a joy to watch you interact with the children, whether you are doing an activity, driving a Bye-Bye Buggy, or telling the Bible story. The children in your class are developing attitudes about being at church. You have the opportunity to help them feel loved and accepted. Thank you, Thank you.

THIS SUNDAY—“Elisha Helped Naaman”
Our Bible story this week will give you an opportunity to talk about God’s love through healing. Even though this concept of healing is a hard one, you can help a child understand that Elisha was used to bring God’s healing to Naaman. The healing came with a simple instruction to wash in the Jordan River seven times. The Bible tells us that Naaman was highly respected by many people and was a great man in the sight of his master. God provided a servant girl to encourage him to go to Elisha. Naaman’s helpers/servants strongly encouraged him to do exactly what Elisha had asked. Naaman did, and he received healing. He went back to Elisha’s home to say thank you. Naaman said, “Now I know that God is the only God.
The story is truly a wonderful example of a changed man and his new understanding of God and His love. I pray that through this story you will be reminded of God’s great love for you and the grace He extends to you in so many ways.
Have a wonderful Sunday morning!
