God Knew You Before You Were Born (Jeremiah 1:5 for Kids)

This week, we learn about identity and purpose. Who are we and why are we here on earth?
Theme: Identity & Purpose
Bible Verse: Jeremiah 1:5
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you…”
💡 What Your Child Learned This Week
This week in Deliberate Kids, we started with a powerful truth
Your child is not an accident
Your child is known by God
Your child is created with purpose
We didn’t just teach it—we helped them experience it, say it, and begin to believe it.
