What to Know for Tonight!
Series: The Seven Churches of Revelation
Hey Parents!
Today we finish our series walking through Jesus’ messages to the seven churches in Revelation. Each week is super practical—looking at real strengths, real struggles, and what it actually looks like to follow Jesus faithfully. Our goal is to help students see that these aren’t just ancient letters—they speak directly to their lives right now.
Lesson: Patient Endurance
Scripture: Revelation 3:7-22
This week we finished our series on the seven churches in Revelation by looking at two very different churches: Philadelphia and Laodicea. One was weak and unimpressive outwardly, yet remained faithful to Jesus. The other looked successful and comfortable, but had slowly become spiritually self-sufficient and disconnected from their need for Him. Students were challenged to consider what it looks like to genuinely depend on Jesus rather than simply becoming comfortable or going through the motions spiritually.
Important Reminder!
Impact is a phone-free environment from the time students arrive until small groups end at 8:30 p.m. If you need to reach your student in an emergency, please text us at 626-761-0229 and we’ll respond right away. Our goal is to give them freedom from distraction so they can fully engage with one another and with God’s Word.

May Catechism
How do I love my neighbor?
My neighbor is made in the image of God so I will love my neighbor because Jesus does. My neighbor is not just those who are close to me or like me, but anyone that God has put in my life. Therefore, I will look not only to my own interests, but to those of my neighbor as well. I will follow Jesus’s example by looking for opportunities to generously love and serve those around me.
Scripture – John 12:25-26
Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him. death, even death on a cross.
