The week got away from me, so I am giving a link to the Jonah DSCS from 4 years ago, and then one from 2016. I believe they still work really well.

Pastor John,
I appreciate the food for thought that I receive when I listen to your children’s sermons. I am a synod authorized minister in the NE Minnesota Synod. Our resources are very limited as is our congregation but I rarely find that I have to adjust the message in order for it to work in our “limited resource” circumstances (bodies and financial abundance) unlike so much of the teaching materials supplied by most Christian publishers.
I would like to personally send a contribution to your ministry but I do not have (and choose not to) enlist in the paypal/venmo apps. Is there a physical address to which I might send a contribution? (I know, old but still dependable, the mail system and this appointed preacher!)
May you continue to feel God’s blessings in all your ministry and life.
In His service,
Sandy Knight
Swan Valley and Maple Hill Lutheran churches
