It's the most wonderful time of the year.....Oh you might be thinking about Christmas, but I am thinking about summer camp at Camp Illiana. Some may think I am crazy, but it is an amazing opportunity to show children Jesus 24x7! Don't forget to sign-up!

Children are a blessing to the Lord! How wonderful it was to see children from 3 years of age to High School using their talents for the Lord last night. The Chili skit was wonderful, the preschoolers did a great job singing "Fishers of men" (how can you NOT smile when you think of those little ones?), and the elementary kids did a terrific job with the musical. Can we do it again tomorrow?

Time is quickly approaching for the children's spring musical. I am so proud of the kids for all their hard work. Learning thier lines, motions and songs. I hope you can come hear the message they have worked hard to present on April 19th at 6:00 p.m.

Christ is risen! How often do we celebrate that good news with our children? I tried to let the New Hope kids let me tell their parents to just hide empty eggs representing the empty tomb, but they booed my off the stage! haha. I had a fabulous time worshipping with all the children yesterday at the beginning of second service. God is great!

As I type, my mind is over joyed with all the upcoming activities to show children Jesus. We are making final preparations for an elementary worship service on Easter Sunday, along with the Spring Children's Musical: Fish Tales, plans are also being made for a fabulous Community Vacation Bible School, and spectacular summer church camps! Wow!
