Welcome AND Recess Week 1

Hello Everyone!  Welcome to the inaugural post on the Kids Kanyon Blog.  This blog highlights all things related to the Children's Ministry at Living Stones Church (the best church in the world.)

There have been big things happening at LSC this week.  We kicked off our RECESS Summer Day Camp this week.  RECESS is an 8 week summer day camp for the kids who attend Monroe Primary Center and/or live in the Miami Hills Apartment Complex.  About 70 kids have been on our property this week and have experienced lots of exciting things, many of which centered around our faith theme for the week "God Loves You."

Some of the things that we experienced this week include:

*Planting grass seed and blowing up soap in the microwave
*Tye-dying t-shirts
*Writing on the walls of the church building
*Meeting special guests such as the puppet Gary the Giraffe, the mad scientist Dr Beaker-Proton, and the wannabe TV chef Peela Bean.
*Some rocking worship and music
*Playing fun games
*Spending lots of time cooling off in the water
*Eating some amazingly delicious food prepared by Michelle Walding, Rochelle Suski and Ericka Williams.  The BBQ Pork Sandwiches were the highlight of the week.
 *Getting "loved on" by the BEST staff and volunteers.  Meredith Waltman is doing an AMAZING job as camp director.  Dwayne Walding, Kelsey Crago, Buffy Gerndt, Melissa Holstein, Kristin LaFollette, Justin Samson, and Josh Silk are a great staff team.

If you haven't volunteered for RECESS, you still can by going here.  You don't want to miss the fun this summer.  Whether you can give a day, week or the whole summer, we would love to have you!!

You can also check out some photos from RECESS on our Facebook page.

Here's to a great first week!  Looking forward to 7 more AWESOME weeks!
