Summer Send-Off for Children

Posted on September 2, 2014September 5, 2014
games of tag and relay races began the fun
ready, set, go!
our side lawn looking south to the field
the egg relay
Ian had  fun
sack races are a challenge
Can you stay upright?
JoAnne leads children's songs
The children helped with the  motions
A teaching skit for the Bible story
The story was of the feeding of the 5000
Next was decorating a cross for a craft
The children got right into this craft
Parents supervised
Decorating a cross is a meaningful craft too
Concentration beyond her years, I'd say

Summer Send-off was a fun party!   The children at Copper Hill Church enjoyed a great time at church on Sunday, August 24.   Organizers JoAnne Jones and Lisa Griffin planned a series of activities bound to please.   It began with active outdoor games on our West lawn under Lisa’s direction on a perfect sunny day.   After various types of tag, relays and sack races, the children went inside for snacks appropriate for kids– sandwiches, veggies, and watermelon. They even had beach “cupcakes” prepared by Ruth Robison. These had ocean-colored gelatin with a topping that looked like sand on one side and a tiny beach umbrella jutting from the sand. JoAnne Jones led the children in singing some children’s songs.   Next there was a skit put on by adults and teen helper, Hunter Prevost.   Pastor Kelvin served as narrator and explainer as the children learned about the event in Jesus’ life when he fed 5000 people with just 5 loaves and 2 fish.   Finally, it was craft time. Parents helped supervise as the children decorated crosses in honor of Jesus.  The gallery of pictures is  thanks to Christian Robison and Pastor Kelvin Jones.
