Culture Connection

What a celebration of JOY at Kids' Connection! Yesterday Nola Aalberts kindly shared her stories of growing up in Winnebago, Nebraska. She displayed artifacts, pictures and toys used by Native American children. Thank you so much, Nola, for coming to Kids' Connection to teach us more about the JOY of sharing our cultures.

JOY:
J-Jesus first
O-Others second
Y- You last

November has gone by quickly! We have enJOYed playing shuffleboard with Jay from Northwestern College, BINGO with Clark and Rachel from Iowa State Bank, a flag folding demonstration with Office Pete De Beer and Arlyn Kleinwolterink on Veteran's Day, Pockets Full of Fun, the 4 corners game, making Thanksgiving cards with Velma and best of all, learning that 'the JOY of the LORD is our STRENGTH!'

This week Tuesday is the November birthday celebration with Northwestern Bank. YEAH!!

We are also in the process of designing Kids' Connection t-shirts and hooded sweatshirts. Look for the order forms and samples on the sign out table.

There will be NO Kids' Connection on Thursday, November 25. It's Thanksgiving Day! We, at Kids' Connection, hope you have a very blessed Thanksgiving Day with family and friends. We are SO thankful to our great God for His blessings and for His wonderful gift of salvation! Thank you to all of volunteers, parents, and especially the children, who make Kids' Connection a fun and JOYful place to be every Tuesday and Thursday! God bless you!
