Children and Family
As I gaze upon the snow gently falling outside the window I realize that although winter is officially here, we are already furiously planning for all the spring activities that are just around the corner. Again, I have to remind myself to enjoy the day, these days, for once they are gone, they are gone forever.
My family was blessed this year with good health, good friends and wonderful time to be together. Yes, the kids got some great stuff too! I can only hope that as the seasons continue to change that all of you are equally blessed and have the opportunity to enjoy time with your families.
Although we are planning for spring and even VBS for this summer, we are enjoying our time in this moment with the kids. We are enjoying having the kids begin each service with us in the Sanctuary and the Great Room. Both Sunday School and Children’s Worship are going strong. We are having a blast on Thursday nights at Kid’s JAM and our birthday celebration for Jesus was a great party. All the activities are going strong right through the winter so come out and enjoy the kids… now.
It’s time to start looking for some of the events that are on their way. We are starting a Children’s Choir, planning a Children’s Service in April that will include Bibles and Blessings for the 2nd grade; we are about to start a “GoFish” Sunday morning program for the 3rd grade and older group at the 11:00 service alongside Children’s Worship, resurrection eggs, and Breakfast with the Easter Bunny and an Easter Egg hunt. I guess you will have to keep your eyes on the bulletin, newsletter, and website for all the details. But again, I will remind you that even with all the great activities headed our way, let’s remember to take advantage of today. To quote a line from one of my kids movies, “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift, that’s why it is called the present.” Enjoy it!
In Christ,
Walt Kivala, Children’s Ministries Director
