Welcome
Welcome to Online Family Sunday School for the week of Sunday, October 11! Over the coming weeks, our lessons will connect with the lectionary. That means the Bible readings we hear in worship will also be what we explore during Sunday School. Today, we'll hear from Paul's letter to the Philippians and celebrate that in Jesus there is joy, encouragement, and peace!

Scripture: Philippians 4:1-9 CSB
The book of Philippians is an epistle. An epistle is a letter. This letter was written by Paul while he was in jail to the early church in Philippi.
So then, my dearly loved and longed for brothers and sisters, my joy and crown, in this manner stand firm in the Lord, dear friends.
2 I urge Euodia and I urge Syntyche to agree in the Lord. 3 Yes, I also ask you, true partner, to help these women who have contended for the gospel at my side, along with Clement and the rest of my coworkers whose names are in the book of life. 4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your graciousness be known to everyone. The Lord is near. 6 Don’t worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable—if there is any moral excellence and if there is anything praiseworthy—dwell on these things. 9 Do what you have learned and received and heard from me, and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you.
