Awana Awards Night

Wednesday night was the Awana Awards and ice cream. It was a big hit. I loved we got to take the kids to "big church." I thought Stu did an awesome job explaining what AWANA is and what all the kids learn. There is nothing better then watching the kids sing on stage. I also loved the kids got to witness the Top Gun graduation. You could tell which men serve in the children's ministry. I loved hearing there screams for their favorite men. I think it was so important for other church members to see that love also. I pray it inspired some other members to serve with the kids.
Other favorites of the night:
1. The Ice Cream was served and eaten in record time.
2. I have been with the same group of girls for 2 years. Some of the girls were talking and I heard one of them say, "next year, Mrs. Marsha will be our teacher again and we can slime her!"
They expect their volunteers to stay with them and I am glad they can depend on us.
