Younger children general resources, also there is A Place To Do Something. Also, Texas Conference kids resources.

Tips:

• At least with young kids, it might be helpful to continue to dress in the same way you would normally go to church. A sense of routine can help kids.
• The Adventist Church's Children's Ministries has a lot of resources for your kids.
• Your Story Hour is now giving one free story per day.

Tithes & Offerings (Online)

To return tithes and offerings, we have Online Giving. One tip: To make it more spiritual-centered, right before I click the submit payment button I pray with my wife thanking God for His blessings. 

Other Resources outside of our local church

We want to "set our minds on what is above, not on what is on the earth" (Colossians 3). There are lots of great sermons and resources online that can help us grow. Here are just a few to get you started.

Other Sabbath Schools online:

• Hope Sabbath School (also on your podcast app)
• Amazing Facts Sabbath School

Other sermons online:

• Hope Lives 365 (Mark Finley)
• Pioneer Memorial Church (Andrews University) 
• Amazing Facts Church service
• Kingscliff Adventist Church (David Asscherick). Also available on your podcast app.
• Light Bearers Videos & MP3
• Adventist Youth sermons (audio)

And of course there is Hope Channel, which streams 24/7 (also available on Roku and similar devices).

Quick tip: I find that the audio-only sermons (e.g., MP3, podcasts) are more useful. That way instead of staring at the screen I'm staring at my Bible!

Also, if you haven't heard the Adventist History Podcast (also on your podcast app), you are in for a treat. Be sure and start with episode #1. 

Trust in God

Remember that God is in control! Philippians states:

Go to God during this time and seek Him greater. He is our help and our refuge. Remember all the wonderful things He has done, is doing, and will do. Allow His peace to rule our hearts. He has got us all in His hands. No matter what happens we can trust in Him! Pray also for His guidance for healthcare workers and protection from this virus for those who are most at risk for serious complications.
