Dear Children’s Ministers,
We have thoroughly enjoyed spending time, observing and helping in the children’s department! We can see how each of you has a heart and love for what you do. That is so vital to build a strong team. Be encouraged to take the next step forward as you minister… in enthusiasm, commitment and teaching. Love your students and their families in practical ways. Lead by example. We hope by or example that we’re never content with “good enough”. We want to be sure we are always growing in relationship with God and others, so we can be “extra-ordinary” and ministering out of an overflowing cup.
We have tried to have a pot-luck / children’s meeting last month but unfortunately things did not work out. So the meeting was rescheduled for Sunday October 19th, right after the third service. I know time is very valuable and I hope this timing will work out for most of you. I would like to see this ‘meeting’ as a time of getting together, having a good meal and fellowshipping with one another and sharing God’s wonderful work in each of the children’s classes. I look forward to learning & growing from each other so that the Children’s Ministry can continue to develop!
I do hope that each one of you will be able to come and be encouraged by what God is doing. Below is a tentative schedule and a list of items families should bring. Please be in prayer and come ready to be blessed!
Time: 12:30pm Have pot-luck set up and ready to eat
1:00pm Time of Sharing and Growing
1:15pm Time of Seeking the Lord in Prayer
What to bring to the Pot-Luck:
Last Names A-J Main Dish (Serving 8)
Last Names K-S Salad / Side (Serving 8)
Last Names T-Z Dessert (Serving 8)
May God richly bless all of you!
Pastor Dewey & Pam Alger
