It's time for a new memory verse………Matthew 25:35b-37 and 40a….."For when I was hungry, you gave me food; when thirsty, you gave me drink; when I was a stranger, you took me into your home, when naked, you clothed me; when I was ill, you came to my help;  when in prison, you visited me…I tell you this:  Whenever you did anything for the least of these, you did it for me."  So get busy and get this memorized because you'll feel a lot better when you do!!!!

   We need to give special thanks to those wonderful people who taught in the last rotation and Children's Church since the rotation before.  They are:  Barbara Baker and Gail Novak (cooking);  Paul Denny (art);  Mickie Giberson (video); Barbara Angle and Janice Stout (missions); Laurie Bushman (drama); Phyllis and Merle Phillips (Bible skills); and Joyce Greenhaw, Jane Johnson, Brent and Laura Lang, Becky Meyer, Sue Chael, and Tammi Ingram (Children's Church).  What a fantastic group of volunteers we have in our church family.  What a blessing!!!!!

   The JYF and CCF kids made friendship bracelets and birthday cards in their Mission rotation of the Story of Joseph over a period of three weeks.  These will be taken to the YWCA Crisis Center in the near future.  We will take 58 bracelets and 74 birthday cards for the kids at the Center who often do not get any presents.  Bless our kids!  Aren't they wonderful??
