Updates & Kidmo's BHAG!

KidROCK Children's Ministries

1. Cornerstone (SK-Gr 5): The kids in Cornerstone have been learning FUEL along with the rest of the church on Sunday mornings. We have been exploring the truths found in the book of James in the New Testament through the life experience of Joseph. There are so many ways that the life of Joseph illustrates what James talks about it is amazing. We have a guest storyteller every Sunday, cool props, and amazing games/crafts. They are also learning the Bible Memory Verse that the whole church is doing each Sunday as well.

2. Harmonization: One of the visions we have had in KidsROCK is to find a way to link what is happening in the upstairs service with the adults and youth with what the children learn downstairs in Cornerstone. This way we can all be going in the same direction and we are also hoping that it facilitates family discussions after church. We're going to be changing the way we do this in the upcoming year and we want to encourage you to be watching this blog for more updates.

3. Pebbles Nursery: We have our Nursery full of children which is just awesome. One of the best things to hear is all the activity coming from that room as we carry out the Cornerstone ministry with the children. Please take a moment to go downstairs and check out the new wall decorations Kristyn put up!

4. KIDMO:

So many cool things are happening in this ministry I just don't know where to start. Kids are praying, keenly interested in inviting their friends, and having a blast. What more can I say?!

The biggest thing that I want to share is a BIG prayer request. Our BIG HAIRY AUDACIOUS GOAL (BHAG) is to reach 100 children through this ministry by the end of Year 2 of the launch of this program. We launched Kidmo on Oct of 2010. We hope to come clost to reaching this by September 2012.

We have big dreams and it is always important to celebrate small successes which is what we do all the time!

Do you want to be part of the vision? Please contact Ian. Here are a few ways you can help

a) Be a KIDMO leader

b) Help be a "KIDMO Parent Link" by facilitating ways for parents to connect once and a while on the night of Kidmo.

c) Help with promoting the event. There are a million ways to do this. You can sign up a child you know. You can pray like mad! We also have flyers that need to go out in the area.
