First Kids Ministry

Sunday is Bible Presentation for our current Kindergarteners. I hope you have all picked up your Bibles to be filled out by family/friends. If not, we have more at church and will give them one. We encourage you to share the imprtance of the Bible with them once received.

Sunday is a MILESTONE. They are getting their first readable Bible from the church. As they learn to read, we hope the Bible is one of the books they turn to and enjoy reading. We are happy as a kds Ministry to come alomgside the family in this partnership.

Now here is the schedule for Sunday.
9:00-9:30 - Kelly Carter will be in the underground to recieve the Bibles from you and write names in them (if you have not already)
9:30 - Kindergarteners will do large group Bible Study then head to the sanctuary for a runthrough (the more kids here the merrier for rehearsal because it runs a LOT smoother)
10:20 - Kindergartners will take their place in the Sanctuary. We are the FIRST thing of the service. I will give a quick speech and then we will begin calling them to stage to receive their Bibles. They will get their Bible from Pastor Blake near the organ, they will take a picture near the drum side of the stage, then they will line up across the front. Find your best place for a picture.
They will dismiss with the kids back to Children's Worship.

This is a great day to invite neighbors, family, and friends to church to see them shine. Looking forward to Sunday.

Praying for you and yours as we get back into the swing of things.

Mark your calendars :)

Camp Day 2!
Wrapped up an incredible day at Camp Lee learning about Jesus knowing our hearts even before we know him and hearing about Jesus choosing a tax collector. Jesus sees potential where we might see problems.

Camp Day 1 in the books.
Learning about Jesus calling the ordinary to the extraordinary. Learned about being fishers of men and Jesus calling some everyday fishermen to be the ones he called to his closest leaders. We even made a fisher man out of one of our kids as he brought in a big bass!
