Kids God Time Sheets & Monthly Parent Cue (Sunday, April 20 & 27)
Each month we supply a Parent Cue for parents and a weekly God Time sheet for kids.
We post the monthly Parent Cue discussion sheet and the week’s God Time exercise for the lesson that was taught this Sunday. Copies of these are also available on the welcome table as you enter the main worship space. Or, for your convenience, you can download them below.

What’s the deal with these anyway?
Our goal as a church is provide you with resources to help your children grow spiritually. We’re doing our best to make things simple and easy. Please feel free to give us feedback on this!
- The Parent Cue is meant to be a resource for you to discuss and reinforce the lesson with your kids. The monthly sheet contains discussion questions for each week. They are designed to help you understand what your kids are learning and talk with your kids about spiritual principles in a relaxed way. They make great dinner conversation!
- The God Time is intended to help kids learn to spend some quiet time with God on their own so they learn to grow spiritually and begin to take responsibility for doing spiritual things on their own. (Of course, they can be fun to do as a family and you’re welcome to help them and model it for them as they learn!)

Celebrate Easter–Invite a friend
Easter is more than a time for searching for hidden eggs and eating candy. It’s a time to find or re-kindle our spiritual side…a time to celebrate newness of life and the opportunity to put our faith in something bigger. Statistically, many people would attend church if invited by a friend. Pray and invite some people this week who might enjoy Deep Water. We promise not to be weird…well, except with the photo booth pics! 😉

8 Things Healthy Couples Don’t Do
One of our goals as a church is to see people grow spiritually. Many of us are married, so this article may be or interest. Let us know what you think by commenting below or on Facebook. Is there anything you would add? Anything with which you disagree? And I can’t help but think how some of this may be good advice for any relationship.
Kayaking Trip for Guys
Looking for adventure? Some men from Deep Water are planning a trip on the water. On May 17, we’ll head out on some kayaks to explore the St. Jones and head down toward the bay. It will be a challenging day of adventure with other guys. The cost will be about $20 for a rented kayak–free if you happen to have a kayak.
If you’re interested in going, contact us, RSVP to the event thru our online community or comment below. Since we need to arrange the kayak rentals ahead of time, we’ll need a commitment soon.
Dover Days
Part of what makes us who we are as a church is the desire to be connected and part of the community outside of the space we meet weekly. As a church we encourage people to be actively involved in the community and take part in the many festivals in and around Dover.
- The event was started in 1933 as a home and garden tour. To celebrate the 80th anniversary, a garden tour will be held on Sunday, May 5.
- It is a jam-packed weekend of fun for the whole family – from the Kids Zone to the classic car show and 350 artisans, crafters and food vendors, you’ll find something for everyone!
- You can see 300 children in colonial attire dancing around the maypole on Dover’s historic Green, named a National Monument in 2013.
- Enjoy the Capital City’s largest parade and pet parade (yes, it’s a pet friendly event!).
- Explore Revolutionary War, Civil War and World War II encampments.
- Visit Woodburn, the home of the Governor.
- More than 40 food purveyors will serve up everything from delicious barbecue to popcorn, peanuts and pizza.
