Girls- We had GREAT time last Friday evening at the first annual 'Girls Get-Together' for Kids' Connection girls, grades 2-5. The girls experienced foot care, massages, hand care, new hairdos, scrap booking, and value in God's eyes!! Thanks to all of the professionals for their help in making the night eventful for all of the girls!!
Goodness- March was Goodness month! We celebrated the fruit of the Spirit of goodness by coloring and decorating place mats for the nursing home residents and hospital patients on Orange City. April is FAITHFULNESS month. Faithfulness means doing the right thing over and over and over. We will also emphasize FAITH to celebrate Easter. Your child will come home with a 'Resurrection Egg' carton filled with numbered eggs telling the story of Easter, Jesus' resurrection. You will need to begin on April 13 in order to 'tell' the beautiful story. We will be assembling the cartons on Thursday, April 7 and Tuesday, April 12. One person per family will assemble the carton. Rejoice!!!
Gadgets- on Saturday, April 16, the boys, grades 2-5 will enjoy a Pine Wood Derby race at Kids' Connection. The deadline to sign up is tomorrow, April 5. Please pick up a pine wood car kit when you return your forms at the Sign out table.
Giggles- Tomorrow at Kids' Connection, Lisa Laird will be introducing FAITHFULNESS to the children with her puppets.
Gift books- A man named Howard Bomgaars started a ministry in memory of his wife, who died recently. He and his children started collecting children’s books to bring to the Banquet in Sioux Falls. Howard’s late wife believed every child should have the opportunity to read. They have already collected many books, however, the Banquet is in need of so many more. We are hoping that the children at Kids’ Connection would be interested in donating some of their used books for this ministry. You will find a box to deposit your books for the Banquet.
Glory- Easter is all about Jesus! Glory to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords!!
