The Naughty Kids' Club

On Sunday, our pastor, David, gave a message about serving. To illustrate the importance of servants (volunteers) at church, all three services were carried out without volunteers. There were no greeters to tell new people where to go, the bulletins were done messily and with errors, no ushers to seat people, no multimedia or audio volunteers, no worship team, etc.

There were people serving in children's ministry (otherwise it just might have been too chaotic), but David wanted to demonstrate what might happen if there were no children's workers. Ella and three of her friends were chosen to help illustrate this message -- we called it "The Naughty Kids' Club". At a certain time during the message, Ella and her friends ran out of the hall, screaming at the top of their lungs, and ran down the aisle in the worship center, totally disrupting the pastor and the service. They practiced on Saturday and were so excited to do it on Sunday! Here is a picture of them practicing -- way too much fun!!

Unfortunately, Tyler was sick and couldn't participate. To Avery's delight, she was asked to fill in for Tyler, and she became an "honorary member" of The Naughty Kids' Club. It was so fun for them, and a great picture of just one of the ways that God asks us to use our gifts in serving His church
