We launched One Way Kids Club for the 2010/2011 school year tonight. As always--plenty of fun (so much so that I forgot to get any pictures of the inflatable!) was had by all.
Matt shared the gospel tonight with a focus on the new life that is found only in Christ Jesus. He used tulips as a symbol of life and rewarded several of the kids for correct answers! Several of the parents also participated in "The Swap" and were encouraged to receive used items from the families at the chapel.
Tonight was the first time that we've had OWKC entirely in the new building. Setting up for the meal in the gym felt a little weird--but I think we'll get used to it! Special thanks to those humble servants who faithfully setup, cook, tear down, and clean up after the meal. After a science experiment showing that fire doesn't burn water, rocks, or earth--James shared the gospel using the story of Elijah on Mount Carmel.
We enjoyed our second One Way Kids Club of February tonight since we are moving from the 1st to the 3rd Friday of each month. The group was a little bit smaller than normal--but we had a great time anyway! Harry gave the gospel message providing the kids with an excellent foundation on God's Word when it comes to knowing the truth. He also reminded the kids about the Ark of Noah's day--and its significance as the only way of salvation.
We enjoyed kids club tonight in the new building for the first time. The message focused on the ONE who is able to make someone new. There were a few illustrations along the way of things that we just can't make new. As always the cooks blessed us with a special dinner--including sweet pretzels for dessert!
We had a great time tonight with the 35 kids out for One Way. Matt shared a lesson (with the supporting cast of Adam and Eve puppets) on the Lord seeking out sinners. He challenged the young people with the need to answer the question of where they were in their relationship with the Savior.
As always--good food and good fun! That gym is so
