Revamped KIDS Club Agenda

As a community, a family, at Cornerstone it has always been a goal of KIDS ministry to present as many opportunities for sharing life together as possible. Admittedly, we have done better at that at some times than others. Life becomes busy and it is difficult to always be together. Yet, there is something beneficial when we can share life. It is desirable to create the time and space for that in the best way for the families and situations which make us who we are. Every family's situation is unique and it is not always possible to make every opportunity accessible to all; but that is always the goal.

Because of changing needs and circumstances the KIDS team is excited to revamp our mid week get together time so more families might be able to participate with as little drain on the families as possible. We are continuing with our dinner on Wednesday nights from 6:00-6:30. Then KIDs and their families will hang out around the dinner tables from 6:30-7:00 for a family event. There will not be separate classes for ages birth-6th grade and the family session will only last about 20-25 minutes. It will be a time when we will do many things as families. There will be weeks where we will worship as families. Some of the nights we will have guests who might bring puppets or balloon sculpting. Others might share a story or an object lesson. There will be opportunity from time to time to help with a service project. These sessions will be planned by staff and you as families will just need to show up and participate. This change will be implemented immediately, Wednesday November 28, 2012 will be our first night with our new schedule. The sessions until Christmas break will be as follows:
November 28- Decorating for Christmas
December 5- Monthly Birthdays and Christmas Story and Christmas Carol singing
December 12- Object lesson and Christmas carol singing
December 19- All Church Soup dinner and cookie exchange followed by All Church Carol singing.
All input is welcome. Please contact Teri at teri@cornerstone4u.org or 816-805-7774.
