Memory Verse Challenge Information


Just in case this note didn't make it home :)...

Attention parents!

You are receiving this because your child expressed interest in participating in our memory verse challenge. This booklet contains the God Alone memory verses for each week. Our goal is to have kids memorize 4 verses each month. If they are able to memorize all 4 verses for that month, they will receive a prize. At the end of the year, we would like to give a 'grand prize' for those who were able to memorize 15 out of the 19 verses (one week there is a repeat verse). Below are some 'rules' and guidelines...

- Children are able to recite their verses to both Wednesday and Sunday teachers. 
- Teachers will initial the box when verse is said correctly (Kids will recite each verse to 2 different teachers)
- Children can say the verse anytime during the month; the goal is simply to have all 4 done by the end of the month
- On the 1st Sunday and 1st Wednesday of each month those who said all 4 verses the previous month will be able to pick a prize.
- Children can say a verse anytime. Some may not be able to keep up with 4 per month, but if they would like to aim for the larger prize and complete 15 verses that is fine. We just want them memorizing scripture! 
- 1st-2nd graders only recite the underlined portion of scripture with the reference. 3rd-6th grade will recite the entire verse and reference. 
- If a child looses their booklet, we will have more available. However, they will need to re-recite all of the verses so that they can be initialed again. Please keep these nice and safe 

We would also encourage parents to participate and learn the verses with your child; it’s a great way to keep them motivated and learning scripture together!
