RANDOM PHOTOS OF THE CONGREGATION

These pictures were all taken yesterday Easter Sunday before and after our worship service. I tried to get a picture of everyone, but I missed a few people who were present.


WHAT'S GOING ON IN OUR KIDS' CLASSROOMS

I was requested a while back from a prior long time member of our congregation who moved away to post some pictures of our building and the different classrooms. In this first set of photos I wanted to show you all what our children's classes have been up to and of course I also tried to take pictures of the kids. I did miss two from our nursery class, and that was Hannah & Jordie, but I'm sure there will be plenty of pictures of those two cuties in the future.

The first two pictures are from the 3 year olds to Kindergarten class. They have started memorizing the Ten Commandments. And, folks, if you think this age is too young for children to start memorizing lists and facts, you're wrong. These kids are like little sponges. They can already sing all the books of the Bible, the 12 Apostles, the Judges, the sons of Jacob, and much more.Next are photos from the 1st through 3rd grade classroom, and as you can see, these are participation necessary classrooms loaded with drills and starting to get into some higher level Biblical concepts. The children do a fabulous job, and really do make it easy to teach them.Now, we're moving onto our five seasoned veterans' classrooms, lol, who have been memorizing and learning about God's plan for them since they were all in the nursery, all designed to equip them to be able to have an instant recall and give an account when necessary for the reason for their faith. As I said before, these kids have done a fabulous job and continue to impress and amaze our whole ocngregation with their Biblical knowledge.All I got a picture of from our two youngest Bible class students is their door, lol. Sandy Arford made all the signs for all the class doors.Our liveliest class is our 3 year olds through kindergarten class. Going around the table starting on the left is Logan, Christopher, Graham & Selvie, better known as three bunnies and a chick.This is our 1st thru 3rd grade class, and as you can see, Pam was the only teacher brave enough to get her picture taken, along with Jake, Aubrey & Kara from left to right.Below are our 4th thru 6th graders. Starting on the left going clockwise we have Collin, McKayla, Josh & John.And being the oldest student and only teenager in our group of kids is Evan, who gets the teacher all to himself.
