Kidstuf!

We just finished up our third semester of Kidstuf. Kidstuf is a worship service for children and their parents. Our church does it on Sunday nights. There are many aspects to kidstuf...music/singing, intro skit, drama, video, and "The Word" (the talk that Ryan usually gives...and sometimes Justin). Kidstuf focuses around a monthly virtue, such as love, fairness, perserverance, gratitiude, kindness. The kids are asked to learn a Bible verse that goes along with each virtue. Even though it's a lot of work (and adds stress to Ryan's work), I really do enjoy it and am little sad when it ends. I know that August will come soon enough, and we'll be getting ready to start again before I know it. I look forward to Josiah being able to come to Kidstuf...hopefully in the fall he'll be able to handle it. We tried once earlier this semester, and he didn't do so well. Here are some pictures:

Here are the Kidstuf dancers!! Tera and I make up the dance moves and hand motions together, and then teach the girls in the youth group.

Here are our sound guys.

Here are just some of our many actors. The actors and actresses rotate turns acting.

I love our Kidstuf stage! I think it looks awesome! I love the couch and other decorations!! Nice frig in the back next to Evan. If you open the frig, you'll see the monthly Bible verse. If you open the picture behind Kayla, you'll see the monthly virtue and its definition.
