Family Night

We had a great time at the KidzLife Family Fun Night.
For snacks we had bait, fish and chips and golden pieces of eight! We watched
"The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything" and shared some thoughts about how God can use us.
Some of the kids had pictures taken with a pirate, complete with talking parrot!

You can check the complete photo slide show on the web.

Special thanks to the girl scouts who came to serve the children for this event!

How Does God Make The Sun And Moon Go Up And Down?

God made powerful laws to guide the universe. These laws control the movements of the sun, moon, earth, and other planets and stars. For example, one law called "gravity" draws objects toward each other. Other laws control the weather. Many forces determine whether the day will be sunny or cloudy, warm or cold, such as the heat from the sun, the currents in the ocean, the wind, and more. God set up the rules that make all these forces work together. And because God controls the entire universe, He can interrupt the laws if He wants to - bring rain to dry land or bright sunshine to flooded areas. How powerful God must be to control all that!


The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge.
Psalm 19:1

Can Christians Hear God Talking To Them?

In the Bible we read about people hearing God's voice. Today, the main way that God speaks to us is through the Bible. That's why it's called "God's Word" - the Bible is God's message to us. God may also speak to us through people and circumstances and in other ways. But God will never tell us to do something that goes against what he says in the Bible. And don't forget, God is with us all the time.

In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe.
(Hebrews 1:1-2)
