DC/KZ January 2014 Newsletter

·         I’m a Christian Now Class: We are excited to once again offer the discipleship class I’m a Christian Now for children who have recently made a decision for salvation. There is still time to register your child before the course begins next week! Contact Elizabeth Horne at Elizabeth@BBCLife.org.

·         Awana 2014: Awana begins on January 8, 2013. If your child is not involved in our Awana Clubs, we invite you to join us in the new semester in the New Year!

·         Imagine Children’s Ministry Conference: As a parent or leader, you are invited to attend Imagine Children’s Ministry Conference on January 31-February 1 in Bardstown. This annual conference is an exciting look into the world of children’s ministry and how to minister to your child and others more effectively. The cost is $50 for a ticket and hotel room plus the cost of your meals. Deadline to pay and sign up with Elizabeth Horne at Elizabeth@BBCLife.org or sign up in the Welcome Center booth is January 22.

·         CentriKid 2014: Although Children’s Church is for 2^nd grade and under, many of you have students who are in 3^rd, 4^th, or 5^th grade. We invite these older students to CentriKid Camp on June 8-12. The deadline to register your child and pay your nonrefundable $50 deposit is February 9. We are having a fundraiser on February 1 to help offset the cost of deposits and the cost of camp. This fundraiser is a pancake breakfast hosted by Applebee’s in Lagrange. The tickets are sold for $8 and the child selling them gets $6 towards camp. If your family would like to participate in this fundraiser, please see Elizabeth Horne to get your tickets to sell!

·         VBS Training: We know that it is just January, but VBS prep for 2014 is already in full swing. Our theme this year is International Spy Academy. There is a free training in Florence, KY for VBS this year on February 7 at 10:00 am. If you are interested, please contact Elizabeth Horne.
