Looking at the past year, I am filled with thankfulness. It is a blessing to work with our families and walk alongside parents, as they are the best spiritual leaders of their kids.
- Our 2019 VBS was a spectacular event! Our adults and students stepped up to take leadership roles that make the event fun and Gospel-centered. The sports camp we hosted that same week through the leadership of Sport Crusaders helped 3 children come to know Christ. That makes all the effort worthwhile!
- We offered our children’s workers and teachers a Child Sexual Abuse workshop. We are thankful that we had a great turn-out for this valuable resource to make us even more aware of the task we have to keep our children safe.
- We had a couple of administrative changes in our ministry: We moved the 6th graders back into the Youth Ministry. Although I miss those kiddos in our children’s area, I was excited for them to be led by our most capable youth leadership. Secondly, we launched a new child check-in system. I believe it couldn’t be done without our tech guy (Vance) and our volunteers who troubleshoot for us to make it better. Thank you: Sonya, Laura, Teresa, and Beth for your perseverance.
- Our kids have led in worship a few times this year as they sang in worship services. Thank you, Mrs. Eva, for your prep with the children and helping them to lead. Our children have also served in the Singing Tree as they presented the nativity story, served at Loaves and Fishes, and at Feed My Starving Children event.
- Again, we had a record crowd at our Trunk or Treat; so much so that we had to seek out parking at Weekends Only! We couldn’t do this outreach event without our people serving in all areas that night.
- Through the generous time given by our volunteer, Linda Gisler, we were able to set up a sensory room for our families of children with disabilities. Jill Crook also painted and decorated our preschool and children’s areas to make them a bit more updated and brighter. Thank you both!
- I am truly thankful being able to use my gifts at Fee Fee Baptist Church. But I couldn’t do what I do if it weren’t for the MANY teachers and workers we have in Bible Study, KidsZone, AWANA, and Children’s Committee. It literally does take a village (the whole church) to make this a ministry, which exalts our living Lord. Thank you, Church! I pray that many more children will come to know Jesus Christ as Savior and grow as His disciples through our endeavors.
