Children’s Choir Begins January 17, 2016!
I am so excited about the re-launching of our Children’s Choir in January. Children 2nd - 5th grades will be meeting during the 2nd hour every Sunday.
I think we all agree that music is an extremely powerful and expressive art. We know that historically music has played an important role in the worship, witness, and Christian life of the church. Would you please pray that:
· God would enrich and bless the lives of the children who will come on January 17
· God would draw additional children and parents to this place
· What we offer would be of value to these wonderful children and their families
Thank you for praying.
In Christ,
Steve Potter
