Announcements for 3/22/09

Ok, so I'm late again. Sorry!!

We have the Amazing Race on April 26 right after the 11am worship service. Bring a lunch with a drink... we'll eat real quick and then get started with the game! Ya'll will be split up into teams and then head off with a driver. You must complete road blocks and detours while figuring out clues to get you from destination to destination. It'll be fun!! This year's camp theme is City of Heroes. The dates are June 8-12. We're doing a couple of car washes and collecting cans to raise money for camp... we'll also discuss a couple of other fun raisers this Wednesday.
We'll also be getting ready to teach on Sunday tomorrow night. We have some painting to do. And we'll do our Interactive Bible study. Fun stuff!! Hope to see ya'll tomorrow night. If you need a ride call me or Daniel M.

Children's Church






It was our turn yesterday to teach children's church. We made a mural with the kids and then acted out the Wedding at Cana. Daniel played Jesus (HUGE stretch there!) I was Mary and we had 3 brides, a groom and a servant! We also did a lot of singing to get ready for Easter. Thanks to everyone who helped! Make sure to come next Sunday as we plan to teach Prayer to the kids.
