    Hi, Michele.
    I am using your articles as a resource for developing curriculum that targets the needs of Mk’s. ( I deal mostly with elementary age children.)
    Our next unit in development has to do with the Fruit of the Spirit. We are looking for specific needs to target as we teach that the fruit of the Spirit is available to all believers as they abide in Christ.
    The internet is full of lessons, games, songs, but I am frustrated with a lack of application to Mks. Thank you for writing these articles! I am finding them insightful and helpful.

  1. […] MK ARTICLES […]

  2. […] Go forth and create cross-cultural characters! {And if you’re looking for more resources, check out fellow-MK Michele Phoenix’s website!} […]
