Playground

The playground is full of children and we made "flower signs" to remind the children of the things they have been learning in our classes. It is the "Garden of Virtues" and the individual flowers are "love," "faith," "patience," "goodness," "kindness," "forgiveness," and "long-suffering." There has been some discussion among the parents of young children recently about our classes and one mother decided to bring her son to class last Saturday. We hope that more parents will make that decision in the future. It is amazing to watch what God can do with something as simple as a playground! We are packing today for our trip back to Panama City. We would appreciate your prayers on Wednesday and Thursday for safe travel and no lost luggage!

2012 Teen Retreat

Last week we took 20 of our teens and chaperones on a retreat to Berdyansk. Our theme was "Shining Like Stars" and we studied the Book of Philippians. The weather was great and everyone had a wonderful time. In an effort to reinforce the theme we made leather bracelets and put stars (and other things)on them, we had glow stick bracelets and we released nine Japanese lanterns at the bon fire Saturday night. Enjoy the pictures.
