Building Strong for Eternity!

During my childhood I saw many wodden boats built because my Dad owned a shipyard. I still remember the sounds of hammers pounding, scaffolds high in the air, the smell of fresh paint and boats on dry land

. Every part of building the boats had to be done precisely from the cutting of the wood to laying the inner body of the boat. Every plank was important so the finished product would produce a sea worthy vessel. ---The same is true for the children we teach. During their childhood, laying a solid foundation is utmost important so they will have the needed truths to weather the stormy seas of life when they are grown. There is no time to relax or skim in our ministry programs. Why?...Because every second spent on building for eternity should be spent...building kids strong in their faith!

Peanut Butter n' Jelly, Toilet Paper, Hula Hoops, Blind Cowboys and a Friendly Pony... Add Up To Fun Learning About God!

That's right peanut butter 'n jelly, toilet paper, hula hoops, a blind cowboy and a friendly pony add up to a super fun event to share life changing truths about God!

Summer is an awesome time to take every opportunity possible to teach children about God. Many of them have been sitting in school for the past 9 months so it is time to shake things up! When putting together your VBS or summer program be creative in how you present every segment. Use lots of props, fun music, energetic games, surprise elements and a meaty Bible Lesson. Remember the heart of your entire program should be the Bible! Oh yea....dont forget to have tons of fun!!

Kickin' Off Summer Ministry Fun!.....<><.....
