This weekend, Pastor Steve will be introducing the newest Home Pointe initiative: Meals@Home. This latest challenge is for families to invest in one another by committing to spend at least three meals a week together for the next 120 days. While this might appear simplistic, the statistics show that not only are families eating less together because of hectic schedules and general "busyness", but that those families that don't engage in family meals see more problems with choices that their children make as they grow.
For our part, the Children's Ministry will be sending home placemats with your child this week, not only offering ideas for discussion but also giving them activities to engage in with you during your meal time. Make sure you talk to them about the Meals@Home campaign as well as ask them about their placemat. It is our prayer that these tools would allow you to grow closer with one another during this time and that Meals@Home would become a part of your life for years to come.
