    VBS/Sports Camp Recap

    We had a wonderful week at Wilderness Escape VBS and Sports Crusaders basketball camp. The kids had so much fun and learned about the attributes of God. Thank you, Church, for providing the resources so we can host such great events for our families. We had 5 children give their lives over to Jesus! And we raised $344.00 for our alpaca mission project in Ecuador. I can’t say enough good things about our volunteers who gave their time in so many ways by leading the tribes, helping to set up and take down, doing crafts, teaching, and modeling Jesus. They were awesome!

    Welcome Weekend

    Sunday, August 15 is an exciting welcome event as our preschoolers, children, and youth move up to the next grade/department. We invite preschoolers, children, and their parents for a continental breakfast as we give kids an opportunity to see their new classrooms and meet their teachers. Promotion Day is August 22, as the kids and youth move into their new classes.

    Wednesday Night Activities

    On Wednesday, September 8 we will restart our regular activities for the school year. AWANA is where it’s at! We will have Puggles and Cubbies for ages 0 through pre-K; grades K-3 will attend Sparks or TnT; and grades 4-5 (Livewires) will get to take part in CIA (CHILDREN IN ACTION), a little something different for our older kids! You don’t want to miss out on the most fun night of the week!

    Trunk or Treat

    Put Trunk or Treat on your calendar for Sunday, October 31 in the afternoon! Start thinking about how you want to be involved. Oh, and don’t forget to start planning your costume! More info to come later.

    “Give praise to the only God. He is our Savior. Glory, majesty, power, and authority belong to him. Give praise to him through Jesus Christ our Lord. Give praise to the One who was before all time, who now is, and who will be forever. Amen,” (Jude 1:25).

    I miss you all immensely! I pray for you often that the Father will give you all the patience and love you need to carry on leading your children to know Christ better. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you lead your families.

    KidsZone

    Just a reminder, there are weekly Bible lessons for kids on our church website under the KidsZone section that you can use at home that comes with some downloadable activities. On September 6 we will again offer in-person KidsZone at 11:00 a.m. during worship. We will do our best to adhere to social distancing guidelines as we meet. Please have your child wear a mask.

    Wednesday Night Activities

    In addition, we are planning Wednesday night activities to begin on September 9. We are currently working on what that will look like. The first night we would like to finish up our 2019-20 AWANA year with AWANA Awards. If you cannot attend we will be sure to get the awards to your children. We will look forward to seeing you again in the near future as you feel comfortable getting out.

    How Can We Help?

    It is understandable that these days are challenging for families. Now, with responsibilities of home-schooling on your plate, we want to be a support to you as you lead your children. If you have suggestions or questions on how we can help you, please share. We are anxious to serve!

    “Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go… Do not be afraid, do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go,” Joshua 1:7, 9.

    Joshua was leading a great multitude of people getting ready to go into the Promised Land and take possession through battle. Whatever you are preparing to take possession of (family concerns, school for kids, work, etc.), God promises to be with you through the battle. Take courage! There is a Promised Land on the other side of this pandemic! Wait and see how God will hold you in the midst of it!
