Practice Wednesday Night!

Hello!

I thought I would give a little more information about practice tomorrow night.

We are thinking about having the kids sing outside as carolers for the Christmas Eve Service. What do you think about that? Let me know by taking the poll to the right--->>

Practice is tomorrow night at 7 pm. It will be over at 7:40.

Dress for tomorrow night is what carolers would wear. They can wear nice clothes as long as they also wear warm clothes with warm hats, gloves, scarves, etc.

The Christmas Eve Service starts at 4:30 on Thursday the 24th. We would like to have the kids here at 4:00 pm to "warm" up and get ready to sing. They will sing from 4:10 or so to 4:35 pm. After that they will come back in to sit with their parents.

If you have any questions, give me a call!

Tonight!

Hello!

Tonight we will be starting to practice the songs for Christmas Eve. It should be a hoot!

We will also be having a small lesson that continues our talk about holiness and making godly choices. Sweet!

See you soon!

Lord's Prayer Skits- Five Groups!!

Three weeks ago, the kid's were learning the Lord's Prayer. I wanted to make it interesting so this is what they had to do:

They had to take 30 minutes and come up with a skit, from scratch, that had all the words from the Lord's Prayer in it. They couldn't be in order and the story was supposed to make sense.

The following posts are the result. : ]

Two Wednesday nights ago the kids were learning a verse that I really like. We were learning John 15:14. Here is the audio file of them yelling it out!

Wednesday Night Kenya Practice!

This past Wednesday night, some of the young adults wanted to practice some of the games they are going to do with the kids in Kenya. So, after having our B2B time, we went out to the parking lot and had some fun.

Swing Your Partner, Doce Doe.

Racing sideways is hard to do.

I wonder how many people actually had clean hands.

We got a free demonstration from the Langley Siblings.

Puzzling. . . .

Wednesday night we continued our talks in B2B (Back to Basics). This was a game we played. They had to take the things I gave them and use each one and work together to solve the problem. Just like they are doing in B2B. The older ones were helping the younger ones and vice versa. It was very cool. It reminded me of the role of kids in worship in community. By including kids in worship we are making worship complete. It does not take away from worship, it MAGNIFIES worship! The kids add their voice, their hearts, their ideas and their chorus to worship the same God that the adults are worshipping. Pretty cool, huh? The worship community includes all ages, genders and cultures. God loves us all.

A Slimy Start

Tonight was the first night with the kids! We had a lot of fun. First, we sang a few fun songs and then they got to ask me questions. They asked stuff like what my favorite song and movie was, lots of questions about my daughter, and guessed how to spell my last name.

Then we went out to the field and played a couple of games. We played Dr. Dodgeball and then we played Toss 'N Splash with water balloons.

We had a few balloons left so the kids had a very small water balloon fight! Good times.

Of course, I got my Slime Gun and slimed a few of them. I hope it comes out of clothes!! (See Colton) : ]
