CONNECT: Night OUT, Night IN

This weekend, we had our February Connect Event....Adults Night OUT, Kids Night IN. While the adults enjoyed fellowship without interruption over an abundance of food at cloverleaf restaurant, our kids were able to eat pizza, play high energy games and prepared a nice, surprise coffee and dessert table for the adults when they returned by making them cookies, decorating the tables, and setting up the coffee table. What a blessing to be able to enjoy our church family. Some pictures from the event:

The Bible Doodle Book


Just wanted to share with you one of my favorite gifts my son Isaac got for Christmas from his Uncle and Aunt... THE BIBLE DOODLE BOOK. {They also have a "pocket" edition) This thing is so great! It's just like those doodle books you see everywhere, but this one helps you focus on Bible stories and challenges you to complete the pictures. I look through it all the time and smile. It's great for road-trips, quiet-time and even LifeGroups! {It also makes an AMAZING gift for the kids in your life!}
