Once again God’s Spirit moved through the cast & crew of Judgement House tonight.  The last group has gone through and as of right now we have a report of 70 salvations.  That brings the total so far that we know of to 511 salvations.  That is such a blessing and what a difference has been made in those lives.  Tonight whole families were getting saved!  But another thing that is a blessing me is the unity of the spirit of the people working throughout Judgement House.  To see people praying for one another and encouraging one another is so awesome.  Thanks so much for all your hard work.  Don’t forget Praise & Worship is at 5 p.m.  It was a blessing to hear from Wallace, missionary for Judgement House in Brazil, and his encouragement to rely on God’s power.  Have a good evening.

Honor August 3, 2008

This month in Route 252 we are learning about honor and what the Bible says about giving honor to people in our lives.  The story this week was about Jesus’ first miracle and how he turned water into wine but also how he showed honor to his mother and how the servants showed honor to Jesus and how we should show honor to people around us.  So part of the fun was to dress up a couple of small group leaders as “brides” with the help of the kids.  Our bottom line was “Show honor to those who are over you” and our memory verse is “Love each other deeply. Honor others more than yourselves.” Romans 12:10  Honor is letting someone know you see how valuable they really are. 

Don’t forget parents, Promotion Weekend will be August 16/17. School age children will promote into the class for the grade they will be in this fall. Preschool children will only promote if they have had a birthday since June 1.  The kids entering 6th grade will be in Route 252 for the last time on that Sunday.

Our KidzWorld staff is so excited about the growth we are experiencing in our children’s ministry. We are beginning to plan some cool events for the fall. Your child won’t want to miss a single week of KidzWorld.

Before gift shop, after gift shop.

It rained all last night and it is still raining this morning but we will still have fun at camp!  The kids are having a blast with all the staff and counselors from NewSpring as well as the staff from Centri-Kid.  Got to go to breakfast…”the most important meal of the day.”

These two got caught being early for their ministry to kids.  We appreciate all of you who help us serve kids at NewSpring.  Keep up the great work!
Jenny Walter arrived at 10:35 to her 4-yr-old class on Sunday morning.  She typically helps with over 40 kids during that hour!
Jason Graham was caught arriving at 5:35 Saturday night.  Jason serves each weekend by helping in the 2’s/3’s on Saturday nights.
 Don’t forget this Thursday Comedian Tim Hawkins will be here at NewSpring for a rip-roaring time of laughter for the whole family.  This weekend the kids will be joining us in the worship center for a superduper family time of learning and worship.  The puppets will be there and I heard there are some special things being planned for the whole family to enjoy.  Bring the family and plan to have a blast at church this weekend.

Glorious One June 18, 2008

The family went to Portland, Maine, to see some lighthouses and to hang out on the beach.  It was sunny the first part of the day but cloudy and rainy the second half of the day. This picture was taken in front of Portland Head Light, the oldest lighthouse in America.  It was fun to see it in action and also see the big ships come into the habor using that lighthouse for a guide. 

The drive back to our hotel was about 2 hours, so after a busy day the whole family fell asleep on the way and as the sun was setting I was listening to Sarah’s ipod. The song “Glorious One” by Steve Fee came on.  As it was playing I was looking at the sunset God painted for me and the words just were perfect.  The song talked about the ocean and it reminded me about what we saw that day.   Sarah took these pictures for me and I wanted to share them with you.

Judgement House & bathroom remodel April 12, 2008

  We just ended an all day meeting with the National Leaders from Judgement House.  We have an 90 minute break before we get together again.  It is so encouraging to hear the stories that are shared at these meetings.  What happens at NewSpring every year happens all over the country and the world during Judgement House.  Judy is from Canada and her church did Judgement House for the very first time in Canada this past October and now she has a burden to take it to many more places in Canada.  It’s just fantastic to hear people from North Carolina, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee and Virginia tell stories of how JH has changed people’s hearts and their church’s vision for the lost!  I wish all of you could hear these stories first hand.  Continue to pray for the ministry of Judgement House as there will be a JH mission trip to Thailand this August.  How cool is that?  It is so great to be a part of a church and a ministry that reaches out to the lost.

   OK, here is the lastest picture of our bathroom remodel which is taking place while we are away.  As you can see they are making progress and I will keep you updated on the project. They have a lot of work ahead of them.

Pizza, anyone? What does pizza have to do with learning about God? Well, today our bottom line was: When you put God first, everything else falls in place. So the kids got to make these “pizzas” to help them realize that just like a pizza needs a crust to hold it all together, so we need to put God first in our lives to help everything else fall into place. It was a blast!!

Here I am presenting a KidzWorld check to Pastor Mark. All during the month of December our kids have been bringing their offering to help with the cost of the new Adventure Avenue Theater puppet stage. These kids have been excited about having a part in this great project. Many of them have younger siblings or friends who will be able to enjoy the theater. After our offerings this morning, the total the kids have given for this project is just over $600!! Thanks, kids, for sacrificing for others.

Grand Opening of Adventure Ave Theater January 11, 2008

Last Wednesday Debbie and I had a meeting with the Preschool Dept lead teachers to discuss many things but the main reason was to discuss the opening of a second theater for our children at NewSpring. I am so excited about this theater and the potential to engage our younger ones on a whole new level.  Darrel and Karla Stinson have stepped up to the plate to be in charge of the theater and it is going to be over-the-top fantastic!  They have such a passion for kids and they have some awesome workers that are going to make it “the best hour of your child’s week”!  The work has already started; the carpet has been pulled off the floor and the underlying concrete has been sanded and stained.  The next step is painting the walls and ceiling. Dale and his crew are already working on the puppet stage that is going to be in there.  With that all in mind, our Grand Opening will be Feburary 17th and we are pulling out all the stops to make this Grand Opening something to remember.

I am always amazed by the high quality of volunteers we have in KidzWorld and their dedication to connecting with children here at NewSpring.

One last thing… let me encourage you to give to this special project.  We have a chance here to have a big impact on children of Wichita and we are going to need your help to do it.  Pray about a special gift to the remodel projects at NewSpring. Your dollar will go a long ways in reaching boys and girls and men and women to Jesus!
