Parent Resources

WELCOME PARENTS!

We strongly believe that it is most important to partner with YOU as the parent. We as a Church only have about 40 hours of potential influence with your children each year, but the average parent or guardian has 3,000 hours of potential influence. We know that two combined influences make a greater impact than two individual influences. So join us as we combine the Light of the Church + the Love of the Home to = a Greater Impact on our children’s faith.

We will not meet on November 4.

The Village presents “All the Feels: Navigating Your Child’s Emotions,” a four-week series designed to help parents understand and support their children’s emotional development. Each week we’ll explore key strategies for identifying, validating, and guiding kids through their feelings while equipping parents with practical tools to foster emotional resilience and open communication. For more information, contact the First Methodist Kids team at Kids@fmcm.org.
