Calvary Chapel Upland Childrens Ministry Blog

Well we had another great year of CKC, and I want to thank Scott and Julie for all their service unto the Lord this past CKC year, and I will be praying for the entire Souldog family as they hit the road this summer I'm very jealous that Scott is going to the Cornerstone Music Festival in Illinois.









With CKC over for the year, I often get asked this question; "Is there still church during the summer?". The answer to that question is yes! You maybe asking; "What goes on at church during the summer on Wednesday nights?" Well we have Children's Chapel. AT Children's Chapel we begin the night with worship, after worship we have a Bible study (this summer we are going through various Psalm), then we do a game with questions regarding the Bible study, then we raffle off prizes, and then lastly everyone goes back to their classrooms and discuss the bible study in small groups, also in the small group everyone gets a chance to pray. Children's Chapel is my favoriate time of the year. Every year we see a lot of spiritual growth in the kids as well as seeing kids come to know the Lord as their personal Lord and Savior. So I encourage all of you to come out to church this summer.






I also want to encourage you to be in the Word daily, not just here at church. Jesus wants us to walk with Him daily. Luke 9:23; "Then He said to them all, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross DAILY, and follow Me." Notice Jesus did not take up your cross on Sunday, or take up your cross on Sunday and Wednesday, no Jesus said take up your cross DAILY. Which means we should be praying to God and reading our bibles everyday.

It is also important in our Christian walk to be in fellowship. Which means hanging out with Christian friends and going to a good Bible teaching church. The book of Hebrews says this; Hebrews 10:24-25; "And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching." So we need to love one another, encourage one other, help each other out, and go to church.

So in closing I hope to see all of you on Wednesday nights at 7:00 for Children's chapel and just remember that song you sang in pre-school; "Read your Bible pray everyday, pray every and you'll grow, grow, grow!"

In Christ <><,
