Summer Wrap

Well, Summer is drawing to completion. School supplies have replaced swimming gear at Walmart, and jeans are arriving daily at the mall. I hope you have had a great Summer!

I had a little talk last week with a guy named Willie. Willie washes our windows at the church. It seems he has taken a peek at what is happening in the classrooms for several weeks. He came to me, very concerned about what he has observed. After talking, I have realized that Willie is a very smart man. He suggested I let you know about his observations. You see, we have scaled back for the summer. The classes are small and intimate, but Willie reminded me of last fall and winter. He has prompted me to remind you of those sweet, smiling faces eager to come to Sunday school and Children's Church. He reminded me of the wonderful excitement that resonates from children when they experience God's love. He reminded me that I cannot and should not do this alone. He reminded me that I should include you, and allow you to experience this JOY!!! And...he's right!!!

You will have the a chance to see the "Windows of Opportunity". The listing of opportunities are located in the Children's Hall across from my office. Take a peek. If you feel God calling you to take the next step, sign up on the clip board (on the bulletin board), and place your Green "Filled" tag on the Opportunity board. I promise you, you will be thankful you followed God's prompting.

If you don't see an Opportunity, on this listing, that you feel is yours to take, keep watching. We will post new ones weekly. The scripture says that to some he called to be teachers, prophets....wait on His calling, then let me know where He wants you to serve.
