Wednesday nights are back! Yea! After a delicious dinner of Hawaiian Chicken (thank you Cheralaine) the kids went to the Children's Ministries Building. After running off some energy on the playground they got down to the business of some serious christian community.
In Praise Place, the 3k - 5k kids were with Trudie and Jen, and the discussion was on heroes. The kids all know modern day heroes like firefighters, police officers and the military, and they reviewed some heroes of the Bible. Then the kids were introduced to the idea that even little people can do big things, so that all the kids present are the Heroes of Praise Place! Keep watching the Praise Place Worship Room to see what these heroes look like.
On the Zone side, 1st - 5th graders were with Robin and Amanda and they went on a tour of newly painted rooms. The kids were especially interested in the Creation Zone where arts & crafts will happen, and they had lots of great ideas for art and projects and decorations!
Then they got together for a Pow Wow! With a drum being passed around the kids got the chance to beat on the drum and tell the group their Pow of the week (the toughest thing) and the Wow of the week (the best thing). Then they prayed for God to help them through the Pows, and gave thanks to God for the Wows.
Moving on to the hero discussion, the kids listed firefighters, medical professionals, police officers, all military, God, and Jesus. When it moved to heroes of the bible they listed David, Moses, Joshua, Esther, Jesus, Paul, God and there was good discussion of their superior biblical knowledge! They were excited by the fact that they are the Heroes of the Zone, and they are coming up with creative ways to show it.
Stay tuned...or better yet, Join Us!
