Bible School has started out great this year! Our first day
brought us 23 excited kids full of energy. Our morning begins with
our hello, a prayer, and each kid telling Cherise Morningstar what their
name is and their favorite food. Then everyone stands up for songs
with John Saylor. Their favorite songs so far are "The Grow
Song," "The Gospel Bus," and "Be Bold," which
really get their voices warmed up.
- After songs, we
listened to Paula Blackton tell her lesson on Jesus walking on the water
and that we should have faith keeping our eyes on Jesus even when we're
going through a rough time in our lives. Paula used a bowl of
water, a metal spoon, a ball of tin foil, and flat tin foil, asking the
kids what they thought would float or not in comparison to people who
have their eyes on Jesus. The kids then sat at the tables and made
little sponge boats for their craft, then lined up to go play games down
at the park until it was time to come back for yummy, healthy snacks
made by Tiffany Gendron and her helpers Makiah Gendron, Gracie Steele,
and Alicia Garcia. The other helpers are: Isaac Saylor, Antonio
Garcia, and Jonathan, who helped with clean-up and getting the kids back
in their story and music circle for a story review game, memory verse
puzzle and more fun songs to sing on their way out the door since it was
time to go home.
- Everyone had so much
fun, making the day fly by and it was over before we knew it.
- This was a great
start to a great week!
