We’re performing An Out of the Box Christmas by Lillenas Music. And by we, I mean the Children’s Ministry and Youth Ministry. Mostly the youth, but most of my volunteers are part of the youth group, so it’s a team effort! I love the concept of this musical because it’s fun with a good lesson. […]
Spiritual Gifts, Skills, and Talents
I like taking personality tests and quizzes. At first, they put in words truths I already knew about myself. Now, I would take them purely for fun or to see if they can really figure me out. I guess I’ve taken so many, I’m hardly surprised by the results. If you’ve been around a ministry […]
