Christian Education For Our Youth
I am amazed that we are fast approaching the end of
another Sunday School year; Rally Sunday seems like a few weeks ago.
Our last day of Sunday School and Kid’s Klub will be Sunday, May 20th.
Nursery will continue throughout the summer. This will be my last time
to make you aware of the holes we have in our staff for next year and I
hope you will give prayerful consideration to giving your time to help.
At this moment we are still in need of 2-3 teachers to
work with next year’s J2A/Confirmand class, this is a small class
(currently 3 children) and Maria will handle the Confirmation
preparation material, but we need teachers to work with our Journey to
Adulthood curriculum. If we get enough people it would only be a
commitment of twice each month. Also, we will be in need of a permanent
nursery attendant; this is a paid position and although we have just
gotten Miss Sasha, she will be leaving for college in August. Please
let me know if you are willing to help.
The preparations for our new Atrium are coming along
very nicely and while we will still be needing assistance, thanks to
all the wonderful people who have donated their time and talent to
getting this sacred space ready for the first class in September. The
new space will be located in the current Rite 13 room at the end of the
hall for those who would like to take a peek!
I would like to ask any/all of you who have children or
grandchildren who are graduating from high school or college this year
to please send me information and a picture of your graduate. We love
to have a bulletin board full of Mediator’s best and brightest or a
“brag board” as I like to call it. Just send, as soon as you can, a
sentence or two about where they are graduating from and their future
plans.
As the Sunday school year and this article come to an
end, I would just like to express my sincere love and gratitude to
everyone who has taught, assisted or volunteered to help our Mediator
kids this year. You all have busy lives and your contributions are
appreciated more than words can say. Mediator is truly an extraordinary
place.
