Eli Crowley is a Christ Church Kid!

Be Strong And Courageous Eli!
Eli Crowley is a Christ Church Kid, and so are his brothers Jake and Sam. All of us at Christ Church are praying for Eli and his family as he fights ALL Leukemia, he is always mentioned in Prayers of the People in the Zone.

Thought you might be interested in the article on Eli in the Daniel Island News:

Wednesday September 26th!

Wow, Moses is cool! Starting out as a baby who only survives because his parents trust in God, he is spoken to by God in the form of a burning bush, and parts the Red Sea! All of this from a guy who said, "No way, pick someone else!" (Exodus 4:13) But God knew Moses could do it, and God said he would be with Moses the whole time. Look at the BIG things that Moses accomplished.

Christ Church Kids had a great time looking at Moses. The Praise Place kids got to see what it was like for Moses to part the Red Sea, and had to try to cross without the "sea" coming down on them. Then they got to watch a skit, Moses in the Basket, put on by the Zone kids. Here's the cast of characters:
Moses' Father - Scott
Moses' Mother - Catherine
Miriam - Lara
Princess - Dylan
Maid 1 - Logan
Maid 2 - Madison
Maid 3 - Anna
Narrator - Elena
Baby Moses - Plastic Baby Doll

All costuming and stage direction done by Hannah, Sailor, Savannah, and Eleanor.

After only one run through, the Zone kids had it down and did a great job presenting the skit to the Praise Place kids. Seriously, it was the idea of the Zone kids to do the skit for Praise Place and they came up with the costumes themselves. The not so Little People did really Big Things Wednesday Night. Amanda, Trudie, Jen and Robin could not be prouder of these kids. Christ Church Kids Rock!

Wednesday September 19th

More fun in the Zone and Praise Place. The most interesting part of Wednesday nights in the addition of the PowWow. This, the third time the kids had done it, went to a new level. The Zone kids are more comfortable sharing real, painful Pows for us to share, and meaningful Wows for us to celebrate. Prayer time before and after the Pow Wow was lead by the kids, with Miss Amanda and Miss Robin participating as part of the group, but not necessarily as the leaders.

Daniel was the Hero we looked at, especially how he handled the Lion's Den in Daniel 6.

In Praise Place, the heroes worked on their paper representations of themselves. Soon the Heroes of Praise Place will be in the Worship Room keeping watch and reminding us that:

LITTLE PEOPLE CAN DO BIG THINGS!

Wednesday Update





Christ Church kids had lots of fun last night, starting with Pow Wows both in Praise Place and the Zone. This is a time to do real sharing of all of our highs and lows, meant to foster community, understanding and real relationships.

Continuing our study of Heroes of the Bible, we joined the Praise Place kids for the Veggie Tale video clip _Dave and the Giant Pickle_, the David and Goliath story told in Veggie form. Even the littlest guy (Dave) can defeat the biggest guy (the Giant) when he had God behind him. Likewise, Little People Can Do Big Things when God is behind them, and that is the motto in Children's Ministries.

What a great time we had @ the 9s in Children's Ministries

Lots of Christ Church kids had a great time @ the 9s on 9/9!

In the Zone Ms. Ann lead the lesson on Philemon 1-20, and the kids learned about forgiveness and peace. Then they went to make Peace/Love/Forgive/ Jesus pinwheels with a lot of help from the middle school and high school.

In Praise Place, Ms. Jen and Ms. Anna had a bunch of kids pretending to be the runaway slave, Onesimus. They were hiding beneath a sheet! They got to make pinwheels too, and there was lots of fun with the big kids from middle school and high school.
