Just thought I'd overload you with some cute kids that we have the chance to play and connect with on Monday afternoons.
Our Memory Verse for this quarter is:
1
Peter 5:8-9a
8 Control yourselves and be careful! The devil is your enemy.
And he goes around like a roaring lion looking for someone to eat. 9 Refuse to
give in to the devil. Stand strong in your faith.
We are trying to focus on the kids depending on God instead of themselves for help. The stories this quarter have been about Abraham and Sarah and Lot; how when they relied on themselves they got into trouble.
The kids have really picked up on this message and enjoyed the stories and have been able to tell when the devil has led people astray, and who they should run to when they need help.
This past Monday we shared the story of Sodom and Gomorrah, and it had them all absolutely quiet as they heard about the consequences of disobedience to God. It amazes me how much they relate to some of the more "drastic" stories in the Bible.

The last Monday of every month is gym day and Family Dinner night. Half of the kids go to the YMCA for play at the gym with the leaders there, the other half stay at the Westminster School gym to play games led by Sandy. Then afterwards we head to Westminster Chapel Presbyterian Church for a dinner with as many parents as can make it!
Our favorite activity at our last gym day was when one of our teen helpers, Kolten, pulled the kids around on those roller carts in the gym - much hilarity was enjoyed by all! I hope these videos open for you.
Thanks for your support and prayers for these families and kids!
