Once again, on behalf of the folks at North Shuswap Christian Fellowship, I would like to take a few moments of your time tp share some thoughts with you. This month, our focus will be on children.
Johnnie was gazing at his baby brother, who lay squealing and wailing in his crib. "Has he come from heaven?" asked Johnnie. "Yes dear." "No wonder they put him out."
The teacher asked her class what each wanted to become when they grew up. "President", "A fireman", "A teacher" One by one they answered until it came Billy's turn. The teacher asked, "Billy, what do you want to be when you grow up?" "Possible", Billy responded. "Possible?" asked the teacher. "Yes," Billy said, "my mom is always telling me I'm impossible. When I grow up I want to become possible."
Here at North Shuswap Christian Fellowship, we highly value children, and are committed to encouraging the development of their possibilities.
Jesus demonstrated his love for children with these words "Let the children come to me. Don't stop them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I assure you, anyone who does not have their kind of faith will never get into the Kingdom of God".
Consider these statements: "Children are the only possessions we can take to Heaven with us", "Be careful of your life, lest a child stumble over you", "Children are contagious to character and conduct".
We would heartily encourage you to consider different ministries we have available for children, such as Sunday School, Vacation Bible School August 2-6 with the Spences from Faith Mission. (The kids will love this enthusiastic couple and the program they bring.) Then, also, there are four Summer Bible Camps that we are happy to recommend to you. I would be thrilled to answer any questions you may have.
Sincerely, because of Jesus and His Love for Children
Pastor John Giesbrecht
