Family Mechanics Coming in January!



Families are a lot like cars. They have need a lot of different parts to run smoothly, you gotta put the right things in them so they continue to run properly, and sometimes they even "break down." We can take care of our families just like you take care of a car. If we ignore our car, don't change the oil, don't change the tires, whatever, it WILL break down.

During the month of January we will be doing this four part special series in Kidzforce that is designed to address real issues in families.  It was produced by High Voltage Kids Ministry.  What's so special about this?  We are inviting parents to participate by skipping church (at least one time) and coming with your child(ren) to the chapel for Kidzforce....its not mandatory.....but it will be FUN and informative.  The themes for our lessons will be:
  1. Family Feud- dealing with sibling rivalry
  2. When the Family Breaks Down- surviving divorce
  3. Meet the Parents- honor your father and mother
  4. Where's Dad?- missing an earthly dad, but having an awesome heavenly father
The series will begin Sunday January 8th.  We will announce specific dates for the the messages in another post.

How NOT to Read the Bible

Note to Parents About Christmas Program

The Christmas Season is coming quickly.  On December 18th, the children will be putting on a Christmas program during the morning service. The Adventure Ark Kidz will be singing and Kidzforce will be doing a program called: "What is Christmas All About?"

We will be picking parts for the program on November 20th during the 10am service.  We will hold rehearsals during the 10 am services on November 27, December 4 and 11.  There will be no dress rehearsal.  All children will have a part in the program, if your child does not have a speaking part they will still be in the choir.  Please have your child attend as many practices as possible.

If your child has something red or green to wear please have them wear it on December 18.  Thanks, and have a wonderful Christmas Season!
