Families: June 25, is family day in church so your children will be with you in worship. What a great time to be an example to your kids on how to worship. Beforehand, have a discussion with your children on why we worship and how to worship. It would be a great family discussion.

For your calendar: VBS and Sports camp is July 17-21, 2023. STELLAR VBS is 9am-12noon; Sports Crusaders Basketball Camp is 1-4pm. This is for kids that have completed K-5th grade. There is a preschool VBS for parents who serve in VBS. Information and registration forms are on our website feefeebc.org/freevbs. If you would like to serve in VBS, I have crew leader (family group leader) spots open.

For the sports camp I have secured a host home for the 3 coaches—woo hoo! Thank you Middendorfs! We will need meals for these Sport Crusaders for the week. If your Sunday School class could help with gift cards or money to help the students with meals, please get those funds to me. They certainly would welcome a home cooked meal one night as they have been travelling all summer. We have salvations every year we do this…it’s an exciting and fun week for our kids and builds God’s kingdom! There is something for everyone to do so if you are interested in serving that week, contact me. Thanks for everything you do to support our children’s ministries.

We will be setting up for STELLAR VBS July 10th -16th  at various times. If you have some time to decorate rooms, get supplies together and various other things, just let me know.

At the beginning of August, there are several events for you to note: Friday, August 4th, is Swim Night 6-8 pm. It’s always a great night for families and it’s FREE so invite friends and neighbors to come. Saturday, August 5th, is the FREE Market and school supply give-away. We will be asking for backpacks and school supply donations from you in the near future. Then, August 6th ,  is promotion Sunday for our preschoolers through youth.

The summer is already flying by…don’t miss any opportunities to serve!!!!

We are at a critical point of needing people to serve in our preschool, children and

youth ministry. God has called us to love and teach our young ones. Afterall, they are the future of our church. God has gifted people to meet the needs of our

congregation. Is He speaking to you? Answer God’s call on your life and seek to serve! God asks not only for our tithes,  but also our time and our talents in

service. It’s so rewarding to see these kids know, love, and serve Jesus. Don’t you want to be part of that?
