In the last Sunrise kids email, we mentioned some exciting news about our Sunrise Kids (Children's Church) ministry that we'd be sharing with you soon. Today is that day!
I'm pleased to officially announce that Donna Ward has agreed to take on the role of our Sunrise Kids Director! That means, most Sundays, she'll be coordinating and leading our children's church time along with the awesome volunteers who will continue serving on their regular rotation.
We tried something like this last Fall with Melissa Hattaway. But after trying it and praying about it, Melissa felt it was not the right fit for her. We continued to pray and the Board of C.E. leadership & I decided we should ask Donna. To be honest, we felt like it was a long shot that Donna would want to do it. We just really, really believed it would be so awesome if she did!
And to our amazement, God had already been working in advance. He had already planted that desire in Donna's heart and she was simply waiting for confirmation that it really was something God wanted and not just her. That confirmation came when we asked and we just couldn't be more thrilled with this answer to prayer!
We truly believe this is going to be great for our kids, great for our volunteers, and great for our church. Please continue to pray for our children's ministry and pray that God will send us more young families who need a safe, loving place where their kids can learn about Jesus!
Grace & Peace,
Pastor Neil | |
