"I provide the platform, you provide the people. I provide the content, you provide the connection."

Leann Woelk


This 6-session interactive online course known as a Family Encounter, will having you teaching your church families of elementary aged children the importance of gathering together in the presence of God and teaching kids biblical truths and foundations of the faith. Family Encounters are flexible to be used as your mid-week program for 6 weeks, a Family Camp or a Family Weekend Retreat.

Using the provided content, Leann will help your team to lead children and families in an onsite/online Family Encounter. You will collect everyday items to create a sensory learning environment for your onsite location and your online families, will create a prayer space in their homes as they learn the practice of coming to God in prayer and waiting on him to speak to their hearts. You as the leader, can use the teaching video as is and share it during the teaching time with your families or you could choose to watch it, learn the content, pray about how you will deliver the content adding in your own stories to personalize the message.

Our theme for this series is Throne of Grace is visual expression of prayer and a reminder that once we have accepted the Son of God, Jesus to be our Savior, we are washed clean of sin by his blood and covered with a robe of righteousness which allows us to be in right standing in front of a Holy God.  We come in Jesus' name to a Throne of Grace, not judgement and receive mercy for the past and grace for the present and future.

You will be helping parents to teach their elementary aged children the importance of biblical principles and walking in righteousness according to God's word.

My prayer for you as you lead your families is that these sessions will transform your families and the children as they experience authentic faith, genuine relationships and real conversations.

Hebrews 4:16
So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God.
There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it.
