In His Presence

"You have made known to me the paths of life; you fill me with joy in your presence." Acts 2:28 I have decided to start a blog because I have been finding so many other blogs so inspiring over the last few days. Hopefully, this one will be inspiring to you!

Power Up! Jesus Helps Us

Sunday School started today. I am heading it up this year and I want to make it as exciting as possible. I want the children to experience how exciting it can be to have God in your life. Today was the first day and 11 children showed up which was pretty good.

I have decided to use two VBS programs. We are starting with "Power Up" VBS and then Treasure of the Nile. After this the Sunday school will be purchasing the new Veggie Tales Curriculum. All of this programs have a lot of excellent resourses, activities, and fantastic exciting music. Today we did Power Up... " Love One Another". I think the kids had a really good time. We started by serving them juice, then we sang the theme song, then we sang some other Sunday School songs, did a skit, read the Good Samaritian story, learned the memory verse with a puzzle, played pass the parcel, made a "Power Up" banner, ended with a cupcake, and finally prayer. I really believe the kids had an excellent time. We are going to try to get more kids next week. I plan on putting letters in the kids bookbags this week at school. I am so excited about Sunday School and I guess if I am exciting about it the kids will be too! For example when I am excited about Junior Choir the kids are excited about Junior Choir. I really believe God has a great plan that is about to happen on the North Coast. I hope I am here to watch it unfold. Please pray for the Sunday School program here.

I also have a highschool student who asked to help out. She was confirmed last year at the church here so I was very pleased when she asked me in school if she could help with Sunday School. Also, my new roommate, a Moravian missionary is helping me as well until he leaves in January... then Carla will help me again. Keep praying. I truly believe that God is going to help us build this program.

Anyway, hope everyone is doing well.

In faith,
Rebecca
