FAMILY DAY is coming!!

What an exciting week we had at Kids' Connection! On Tuesday we celebrated the Chinese New Year and learned some Chinese language and Chinese culture. Thanks to Kristyn Howe and Kathy Gabel for sharing their experiences and artifacts. On Thursday we welcomed Lisa Laird and her puppets for a lesson on kindness. Following the puppet show, Lisa took 18 children and several very kind volunteers to make their own puppets out of stuffed animals. The children were so proud of their finished product! Thanks so much Lisa and Volunteers for your help with this BIG project! Two groups from MOC-FV joined us for fun and games on Thursday as well: the Girls Basketball Team and the Varsity All-State Speech/Musical Theater Team. What a display of kindness and generosity! Thank you very, very much for spending such quality time with us!!!

This week Tuesday, February 15 is FAMILY DAY!! We are celebrating each child's family by inviting them to join us for snacks, games, and FUN! If you are interested in joining us, please let Leanne know via email at leanne@frcoc.org or by calling the church office at 737-4909 #15. Please let us know how many people will be attending and what time you are arriving. Thank you!

On Thursday, the 17th, we are celebrating CHOCOLATE!!! Yum!! We are planning games and other fun activities to celebrate one of my personal favorite foods.

We are still collecting non-perishable food items for the Food Pantry, a local outlet for food and other items. We will be collecting until February 24. Thanks!

Celebrate KINDNESS!
