It was cold, but it wasn’t raining. So about 50 kids — about 35 families — came out to show off costumes and collect on the treats offered by members of United Christian Church and our neighbors, Jeremiah Temple Church. Oh, and hot chocolate! The cocoa was the hit of the day with adults and some of the children. Here are some memories:
This was our “Back 2 School Bingo Bonanza” celebration on August 6th, 2023. We invited students from the community to come and celebrate the end of the summer and the start of the new school year. This celebration was filled with food, games, prizes, arts and crafts, puzzles, educational activities, balloon animals, raffles, as well as, free backpacks and school supplies for every student. Everyone joined in the fun as students and parents completed fun activities on their student’s Bingo cards. We had an awesome day!! We can’t wait until next year and invite you to join us next time!!!
By the way: When we checked we had 33 children and youth at our event.
Vacation Bible School for 2023 is in the history books. We had fun with our theme, “At One with God’s Creation,” because it gave us a chance to do so much outdoors study and play. 24 children and youth took part through the week. Here’s a brief photo reminder of the event.
