A Busy (Typical) Wednesday At Main Street

I wanted to capture a typical summer Wednesday at Main Street in pictures. Here is yesterday, Wed. June 4~ We had a BUSY, but FUN day!


Our first stop was the ASU Museum with our Summer Program kids. We had 27 children attend, along with adult volunteers. The kids had a great time exploring the museum. They even had an opportunity to participate in a scavenger hunt.

Look at the HUGE gator!

Some of the children said this dinosaur exhibit was their favorite

Lots of hands-on activities kept them running around and busy

Debbie, Jakob, and Chastity C.

The next stop was our regular Wednesday "Kids For Christ" program. The children began arriving @ 4pm - here are early birds Derek, Sharon, and Hailey.

Zach plays in the gym - our gym normally opens @ 5pm for play, followed by a meal and then Bible class.

Cliff "entertains" Zach and Ashlei before the dinner starts

A typical Wednesday evening meal at Main Street. It is free to anyone who comes. We have many children and adults who attend. This week's menu: BBQ sandwiches, Hamburger Macaroni, hamburgers, baked beans, corn, salad and dessert.

After supper, we have a devotional time from 6:45pm-7:00pm-- here Cliff leads songs with some of our young men who will later lead songs in our church invitation time @ 7:45pm in our auditorium.

The Teen Bible Class celebrated their June birthdays tonight in their class

The teen class

In the pre-teen class, I started the lesson with having a "Hot Potato Game." It is too long to explain here, but the "winners" had to eat a spoonful of baby food (Our lesson was on Persuasion, Good and Bad). Above you'll notice Amber actually enjoying her baby food. Rumor has it that she ate the whole thing!

Jordan is not enjoying his-- I think it was Beef and Apple

Derek checks over his baby food before he consumes it-- everyone loves chicken and peas!
Tristan gets mac and cheese. (It sounds better than it tasted!)

Tristan and Amanda R. (Amanda looks defeated) figure out what they won!

We discussed some important Bible scriptures about persuading others in a positive way to learn more about Christ. We also discussed negative ways people try to persuade us (or influence us) to do wrong.

We always enjoy every day at Main St. Church of Christ. Come and visit Sunday and see what you're missing!
