Wow! What a great Sunday morning. It has been a wonderful Mother’s Day and church was awesome. (I seem to be using that word a lot anymore….) I had record attendance in KIDMO this morning. The KIDMO lesson we did was the best one we’ve done yet I think. We had a handful of visitors in the children’s department and church was full of new adults and families! Woo Hoo!!!! Follow-up, follow-up, follow-up… Any ideas for systems?
Anyways, I saw a group of my Wednesday night neighborhood kids at church on a Sunday for the FIRST TIME! That left me stoked. It’s working!!! I am passionate and love seeing kids grow. Seeing kids that were once disconnected from church coming whenever they can. It rocks. My prayer is that they continue coming and that one day their families will come too. It’s so awesome to see a family legacy and a family change start with the children.
Mothers left today feeling inspired, special, and worthy. That was our goal and we did an awesome job of providing that environment. God provided the rest! I am excited that tomorrow I am meeting with a potential volunteer in the children’s ministry department. He used to do children’s ministry and has always been involved in it. I have been praying for someone to help with the elementary department and a male presence is SO NEEDED!
We have a lot of things coming up in the fall, BIG CHANGES and new things and I am so excited. I know God is going to grow the children of Dutch Fork and the children’s ministry as we continue to seek Him, plan excellent experiences, and build relationships with these kids. I’m ready.
I am fully aware of Satan’s attack this week after having such an awesome Sunday. I’m on guard.
