Kick-Off Party - HUGE Success!

The first Annual K4C Kick-Off Party was a huge success! We had a great group of kids, 19 of them! They won all kinds of prizes. Eddie took home the DVD player - Congratulations Eddie!

We were in our new building and it is awesome. We started with a matching game. Kids were given half of a game piece and had to find the person that had the other half. We also played Bible Bingo. You right the Books of the Bible in the bingo squares and the caller draws the names out of a cup. Zoey and Tatum performed a song they learned in Children's Church with all the books in the Old Testament.

We learned about the latest K4C Mission: Project Buzzkill. We are going to raise awareness about Malaria in Africa. We will also raise money to send bed nets to help protect children from mosquitos which spread Malaria. 3000 kids a day die from Malaria and it only costs $10 to protect a whole family with a bed net. We made collection jars with net over them to collect spare change at home.

Next week we will learn more about the nets and how they work. We will talk about how to raise money and awareness. And Miss Dawn is planning a cool game.

Hope to see you all there!
