This year we wanted to do a little something different for the kids Sunday School classes. We have had weekly after-school studies in the past....fall gatherings...and various other fun times full of Godly lessons. With the looonnnngggg and intense heatwave we have been having this summer...it just seemed like a Beach Theme would be perfect. So, the Beach Blast was put in full swing!
The kids got to invite friends from the community to join us and there ended up being about 20 kids in all...a great turnout!
Our class focus was "Walking with Jesus"...miracles, parables and examples that Jesus set for us to live by!
Our mornings were full of puppet shows, storytelling, games, crafts, songs and snacks!
On the last day, we did something a little special. After our morning of learning and praising...we had a sack lunch!
Then we headed outdoors to "catch a wave"...
...and enjoyed some summer fun!
The kids got along great with each other! I never heard a mean word or any fighting...not a tattletales in our bunch! Little kids played with the big kids...
Big kids played with the little ones...
Brothers spent time together...
Sisters shared some laughs...
Some found new courage...
Others became fearless...
The line between "girls and boys" melted away...and friendships grew!
The laughter..smiles...and giggles were constant!
I hope the kids had a great time, but most importantly, I hope they continue to "Walk with Jesus" throughout their lives! Thanks to all the helpers for all you did and contributed to such an important time!
