somethings inside the boy

church was great today and we had a lot of the family there; sarah's parents and my parents along with e and j. (we really miss ad, leya, gigi, unborn sweet baby and justin by the way)

josiah kept lifting his hands during worship like there was something inside of him that he didn't quite know what to do with yet. well, son, let me tell you about easter...

they dedicated a new building on campus to the children's equipping center
the children's ministry here is so unique in that they focus on loving God passionately from a young age while the 'cement is still wet', as one speaker said.
get this: in their summer camp they take one day where they invite adults that are sick to come into the meeting with the kids and teens. the kids swarm around and pray for healing and people are getting healed! i can't wait for my boys to be old enough to start (6 year old limit).

God is on the move and, as a parent, i am becoming so aware of our responsibility to position our children in an environment where they can fall in love with Jesus.
