When the Jones family joins Brother Alexander for a Saturday of outreach, they learn that soul winning is more than handing out flyers—it’s loving people enough to invite them closer to Jesus. From porch conversations to prayers in their “Prayer Fort,” the kids discover that even small acts of kindness plant seeds of faith. But the biggest surprise comes on Sunday morning, when their once-grumpy neighbor, Mr. Thompson, walks into church for the very first time. With laughter, cookies, and heartfelt prayers, the Joneses discover that outreach begins with a simple invitation—and God writes the rest of the story.

When beloved teacher Sister Ward falls suddenly ill, the Jones family—and their entire school—are shaken. Hallways grow hushed, prayers fill classrooms, and the children discover how powerful it is to carry one another’s burdens before God. From Allison’s carefully planned prayer chain to Ana’s cozy “Prayer Fort,” from Addison’s Comfort Basket to Ava Grace’s gentle reminders that “Jesus sits with us,” the week becomes a living lesson in faith. Even grumpy neighbor Mr. Thompson joins in, surprising himself with a sidewalk prayer. As the Joneses wait, hope, and watch for God’s answer, they learn that prayer is not magic—it’s relationship. And when Sister Ward finally returns, they celebrate not just her healing, but the God who held them steady in the waiting.

From grocery store lines that feel endless to ice cream shops that run out of sprinkles, the Jones kids get more practice with patience than they ever expected. Allison wrestles with a juice-soaked chore chart, Addison faces the tragedy of “emotional starvation,” and Ana discovers that even chocolate sprinkles can surprise you when you give them a chance. With Dad’s reminder to Wait, Breathe, Pray, the whole family learns that patience isn’t boring—it’s brave. By the end of the week, they discover that waiting with trust makes every blessing taste a little sweeter.

Storms don’t just happen outside—they sometimes rumble through the Jones house too. From toppled chore charts and board game meltdowns to spilled grape juice and soggy shoes, each child faces their own “inside weather.” With Dad’s new family tool—Count, Cool, Choose—the kids learn how to pause, breathe, and respond instead of exploding. Through laughter, mistakes, and even a church object lesson with a pressure cooker and a teapot, the Jones family discovers that anger doesn’t have to leave a mess. When storms roll in, patience, forgiveness, and God’s Word can always bring the sunshine back.

Friendliness Week continues, and the Jones kids soon discover that kindness takes creativity—and sometimes courage. Allison’s careful “Friendliness Plan” gets tested when a classmate stumbles, Addison helps turn a cafeteria spill into teamwork, and Ava Grace shows even a grumpy neighbor the gentleness of a kind word. From church greeter duty to a Saturday service project, the family learns that friendliness isn’t just a school assignment—it’s hospitality with shoes on, walking across streets, sitting with the lonely, and even rebuilding fences. By week’s end, the Joneses discover that every “hello” leaves a door open for God to work.

It’s Friendliness Week at school, and the Jones kids are on a mission to practice kindness in every corner of their day. From the introduction of a brand-new Friendship Bench, to Addison bravely inviting the shy new girl Maya to sit with her, to Ava Grace’s gentle gift of a sunflower sticker, each child learns that even the smallest “hello” can open a big door. But as friendships shift and invisible fences appear, the Jones family begins to see that real friendliness requires more than a smile—it takes courage.

When a silly misunderstanding on the playground turns into a full-blown rumor, the Jones kids learn just how quickly gossip can spread—and how much it can hurt. Addison finds herself at the center of a wild story about mice, fainting, and the teacher’s lounge, all thanks to Ana’s exaggerated retelling. As whispers grow louder, Dad steps in with a powerful lesson: words can build up or tear down, but once spoken, they can’t be taken back. Through honesty, forgiveness, and a chapel object lesson involving toothpaste, the Jones family discovers that the antidote to gossip is truth spoken with kindness.

In this heartwarming adventure, the Jones kids discover that kindness can turn an ordinary school day into something extraordinary. From standing up for a shy new classmate with a dinosaur lunchbox to launching their very own “Secret Kindness Club,” Allison, Addison, Ana, and Ava Grace find creative ways to spread encouragement around the playground and classroom.

But when glitter pens explode at home and tempers flare, the sisters learn an important truth: kindness isn’t just for the playground or public—it starts with family. Through laughter, mishaps, and Mom and Dad’s gentle guidance, the Jones children discover that being kind to those closest to us is the greatest mission of all.
