Shining Lights

Is your child (or children) in grades 2 through 5?

Then they would love our Shining Lights program!  It’s a youth group of sorts for young kids that meet the second Sunday of the month (Oct. 14, Nov. 11, Dec. 9, Jan 13, Feb. 10, March 10, April 14, and May 12) from 2:00PM-4:00PM in the Multipurpose Room.  With games, activities, snack and a biblical application, what kid wouldn’t want to come?

Shining Lights is ready for an awesome year – are you?  If you are in 2nd – 5th grade, we would love for you to join us!  Our first meeting will be on Sunday, October 14th from 2-4 in the Multipurpose Room.  Any questions?  Contact Tina Morrison (TinaMorrison98@comcast.net or Stacy Ham (ham.stacy@yahoo.com).
