A-W-A-N-A! In the Heights!

We had another amazing night at AWANA in the Heights last night!  60 wonderful kids blew in from outside.  We ate chicken nuggets, worshiped, memorized God's word, and made some.... interesting cookies (ask the kids what cookie dough with dog food, sand, and motor oil looks like!  ...or Pastor Ron.  Just don't ever let him bake for you.)  I cannot even tell you how inspiring it is to watch all the adults of this church love on the children of Calvary.

One (crazy) couple in particular rushed here just to be with their kids.  I don't want to embarrass them by mentioning their names so I'll be discreet, *cough*Mark&Sara*cough*, I must confess I was a bit nervous when I heard Tuesday that they were flying back from Florida Wednesday.  Their plane landed at 5:15 and they were hoping to make it here by 6.  Now THAT is dedication.  How wonderful it was to see them greet their kids!  I'm sure it was a whirlwind day but I hope it was worth it when they were welcomed with hugs and smiles, even by 3rd grade boys.  What a wonderful blessing you are to me and to your kids, those that live with you AND those that don't.  Thank you!  And thank you all that give of your time and your hearts to love the children of Calvary.

Welcome!

Welcome to the Children's Ministry Blog for Calvary on 8th street!  I am so excited you are here!

To get things rolling I have one announcement:  Sunday November 13 the children's choir will be singing during church.  Please have all kids gather in the lounge at 9:00am to practice with Miss Earlene!
