CHAOS & K4C in the Chirstmas Parade

Time has just flown and the Christmas Parade is next week!! Yes, that's right, Monday!! The kids had a great time participating last year and we will do it again this year. Rather than walking, we have registered to have a float. This year's theme is "A Magical Christmas"! Our vision of the float is of a modern Christmas scene where children are in their pajamas in a "living room" with a Christmas tree, presents, etc and parents\grandparents telling the Christmas Story from the bible. The Christmas Story will be broadcasting from a sound system. The trailer will be split in half with a "window" and on the back half will be a manger scene. Some of you may recall that this is similar to one we had a few years ago.

We will be working on it Wednesday evening, the 26th at 5:00 pm, and Sunday the 30th after church. Depending on how things are looking after Wednesday, we may have a work day on Saturday afternoon, the 29th. Kids can help by wrapping packages and stenciling a wrap\banner. A few handy men are needed to construct the "window" and trailer railing. And if anyone has an inverter, we would certainly be blessed to use it to light up our Christmas tree. If you can help, please, please come help us. If you have any supplies or tools, please bring them too. More information and a list of recommended supplies can be found here!

We'll be looking forward to seeing you at Family Night tomorrow and church on Sundays in the meantime!

Put Your Praise On!


And wear your dancing shoes! Tonight we will learn how to praise God through dance! We will read about how David danced before the ark of the covenant in 2 Samuel 6:11-15. We believe that stories of praise teach us many different ways to praise God. "Let everything that breathes praise the LORD! Praise the Lord!" -- Psalm 150:6

Embrace the CHAOS!

Christ Has All Our Solutions

Did you know that 80% of those who accept Christ as their savior do so before age 20? Bethel's new middle school group is growing and always up to something! It's such a fun, crazy group!

CHAOS is led by Daniel and Brittany with the assistance of Miss Dawn & Miss Amy.

We meet each Wednesday night at 6:00 in the Youth Lounge for a time of growing as a group while also learning about what the Bible says about how we live our life. Sometimes we just hang out and talk about what's going on in Our World, school, home, etc. That includes making good decisions, developing faithful friendships, growing in our roles at home, and knowing we have a support system in our church. And then there's a lot of Four Square!

Fun trips and times of service are also part of this ministry that is growing in more than just numbers.

Live B.I.G.!!

At K4C, it is our goal to help children come to know the love of God through Jesus by making K4C a place they want to be. We want to help them live out their belief in God in their everyday lives. This week we will begin to dream B.I.G. and bring it to life with Live B.I.G., a DVD-based resource designed to excite and enrich your children's spiritual lives by bringing their everyday real world experience into Wednesday Night K4C!

Live B.I.G. helps children see, hear and live their Belief In God. Short video segments bring faith-filled, high-energy excitement to your children with:

Characters who model B.I.G. behavior
Travel segments featuring B.I.G. ministries by everyday B.I.G. people
Cool music for your kids' ears

We hope you will join us this week as we begin to Live B.I.G. in a whole new way!
