This evening was a great and productive night. Kids made cookies to be used for our Sunday Fellowship time after church. They all worked hard to get the job done.

Quiet Time
February 12, we spent most of the evening reflecting on quiet time. We even spent over 4 whole minutes in the quiet sanctuary. Many kids said 4 minutes felt so much longer, some enjoyed the quiet, others did not.
We talked about clearing our minds and making space in our lives for quiet time with God. At first I thought this may be a hard or boring topic; but we actually had a great conversation about it. I pray that they can learn to make time to calm themselves and just "be".
After our discussion we tried our hand a being patient and working with partners to carefully move a spaghetti noodle...or 5 in a relay race. A delicate task but they all ended up succeeding.
