These
words, set to music, might greet you as you go down the basement
steps at the laundry mat of East Garden Village trailer park on a
Thursday afternoon at 4:30 pm.
Each Thursday, Jane Krug, Janine Funk, Angie Seyferth,
Linda Walker, Nelda Lewis and Ann Myers work with young people -
Kindergarten through 6th grades to share the Good News with them
through songs, Bible study, games and crafts.
Miss Ann travels through
the trailer park to pick up the children in the church van, while
several other children walk to the basement for "Bible Club."
Each "club meeting" begins with singing, followed by snacks, a Bible
story, and then three rotation centers that help bring the Bible
story to life for the children. There have been up to 40
children flooding into the basement, this fall, to hear stories
about Joseph, found in Genesis, and how Joseph's story can impact
their lives today.
If you would be interested in helping with this ministry, please
contact Ann at 275-9171 or
ann@fumcgc.com .
You might want to try a one-time
experience by PROVIDING SNACKS for 40 children on a Thursday
afternoon and then staying to help with the activities. IT
WOULD BE GREAT HELP IF WE COULD HAVE A SUPPLY OF JUICE BOXES, JUICE
POUCHES, OR GALLON-SIZED CONTAINERS OF JUICE TO SHARE WITH THE
SNACKS. If this is a
ministry opportunity you would like to be involved in, please
purchase juice and leave it in the box next to the church office.
It
might just happen that your heart will be touched in a mighty way
and you will feel the tugging from God to make a difference in these
children's lives each week!
