Wednesday "Kids for Christ" Program

Our Wednesday "Kids for Christ" Program is now more than a year old! We began June 2007 offering a special Wed. night program for kids and families. We open the gym for open play at 5pm. We offer a full supper meal at 6pm-- free to anyone who comes. We have Bible-centered lessons for all ages from 7:00pm-7:45pm-- followed by a student-led devotional period from 7:45pm-8:00pm.

I did an activity in my Bible class tonight-- the lesson was on "Being a Christian Even When Nobody is Watching". The introductory activity was for the kids to eat a donut suspended in air-- without using their hands (to illustrate difficult things-- I tied it to the lesson that it is sometimes hard to do the right thing when we thing nobody is watching-- our text was John 14:34).
Here, Jordan (green shirt), Noah, Matthew all try to eat up!

The kids seemed to enjoy the activity-- while the rest of us watched!

Rebecca was very neat in her "nibbling" on the donut!


Gatlin is eating his off the floor! (Don't read this, Lisa!)


We even had Chastity (our summer program coordinator) participate! (She did refuse to eat the rest of her donut that fell on the floor!)


We always have fun learning about God in our Wednesday program!
