First Day of Childrens' Ministry

Today was the first day of our Weekly Kids' Time at our house. Jeff got a final count of about 85 children. The ones that you see are just a glimpse of their faces. I asked each one of their names (a bit challenging) then went on to say that I would probably not remember their names but that God knows each one of their names and loves them all very much. I reminded them that God knows their name and they are very special to Him. From there we talked about all the things that God created. I got them around to God created the fish in the sea and that segued into playing Sharks and Minnows. It was a bit chaotic. The sharks are supposed to tap the minnows as they run by but some of them were tackling them to the sand. The kids didn't seem to mind too much but they all had fun. From there, I taught them the story of Creation with them acting things out for each day. It was a wonderful time with the kids and I am so happy that 85 children got the chance to hear that they are special and that God loves them! Tune in for more info next week. I'm sure that we will have even more kids. Yay, God!
