    Family Nerf Games

    You have been asking for it and here it is! On Saturday, January 29, from 4:00-6:00 p.m. we are going to fill the gym with a friendly Nerf battle! Bring your own Nerf guns and darts and we will have a great time playing it up! Invite your family and friends to join us! We look forward to seeing you there! Please wear masks, as we will be inside the gym.

    Parent’s Night Out

    Parent’s Night Out will be on Friday, February 11, from 5:00-9:00 p.m. For only $5 per child, your kids can enjoy safe and fun childcare while you have a night out with your beloved! The night will include fun, games, pizza dinner, and even swim for an hour at the Bridgeton Community Center if they are elementary age (K-5). Preschoolers will remain at the church to play; if you would like your preschooler to swim, one parent will need to be present at the pool. Sign-up sheets are out in the Connection Center and reservations are due by February 6.

    Serving Opportunities

    Part of being a Christian is serving. Colossians 3:23-24 says, “And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance: for you serve the Lord Christ.” We have needs here for people to plug in and use their gifts to serve. Some of those are in our preschool and children’s areas. Yes, we have a lot of wonderful people that already serve in this area, but it takes many to serve our children and families. Please talk to Kathy if you believe God can use you to serve in our children’s ministry. See Andrew if you would like to serve in other areas. Choose in this new year to actively serve the living God who gave so much for you!
