OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD

noreply@blogger.com (James & Lori Mitchell) — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 20:48:00 +0000

Children's Ministry
It's Shoebox Time!

KidZone would like to invite you once again to team up with us this Christmas as we share the love and hope of Jesus Christ with needy children all around the world by using a simple shoebox.

Operation Christmas Child is an easy missions project that every member and family can participate in by bringing a gift- filled shoe box to church between October 19th through November 12th.

We hope that you join us in making a difference in the life of a child around the world by praying for and packing gifts for those who will be receiving shoe boxes this Christmas from KidZone families via Operation Christmas Child.

Read Stories About The Impact of Operation Christmas Child Samaritan's Purse

Here is what you need to do:

Pray - Pray that God will touch the heart of every child who receives a shoe box gift and that He will bring many children and families to faith in Christ.

Pack A Gift - A shoe box filled with small toys and other gifts can open hurting hearts to God's love. Instructional brochures are available in the KidZone office or you can click on the following link: How to Pack a Shoebox.

Bring your shoebox gift with you to church and simply drop it off at the Operation Christmas Child table located in THE ZONE (B1&2) or in the KidZone office during the weeks of October 19th through November 12th.

(Please remember to include a $7 check made out to Samaritan's Purse to cover shipping and other project costs.)

Our First Week of Swim & Studies

noreply@blogger.com (James & Lori Mitchell) — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 04:59:00 +0000

5/ 6 Swim n’ Study
What a way to kick off the summer swim and studies! We started swimming in the Zurick’s pool (yay!) with a “most stylish” diving contest, and squirting everyone with squirt guns! The 5th and 6th graders are so awesome! The paid close attention when it was time for Joy’s lesson about worship. They learned how to worship God through several ways! Their answers to Joy’s questions stunned me, how the kids had clearly thought about this before. After the lesson kids shared prayer requests and then they prayed for each other.

3/ 4 Swim n’ Study
On Thursday the 3rd and 4th grade swim and study was at the Zilar’s house. Their pool is so cool and refreshing! The kids love playing basketball and submarines and there. After lunch we sat down for Joy’s talk; she talked about worship and different ways we could worship God. We encourage the kids to pray for each other during the week so we started sharing prayer requests. Some of the things kids pray for astonish me! It’s encouraging to hear 3rd and 4th graders pray for each other. This was my favorite part of the day because the kids’ prayers were so genuine and sweet.

Always,
Jocelyn

Bible Story: GOD CALLS ISAIAH (Isaiah 6:1-8)

Key Verse: "Come, let us bow down and worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker." Psalm 95:6

Bible Point: This week we learned that we need to respond to God's holiness with worship. Kidz learned that everything that we do and everything that we say can be a form of worship, if they are things that honor God.

Did Ya Know: Seraphim, the heavenly beings Isaiah saw in his vision, are not mentioned anywhere else in the Bible. The word seraphim may come from a Hebrew word that means "to burn up."
