Green Eggs

Today was "Family Fun Day" at NTBC as part of our Church Anniversary Celebration.  We had several nights of preaching and we will cap it all off tomorrow with a guest speaker in our services.  There were lots of activities today for the kids, including a BIG, inflatable bouncing room, a petting zoo, crafts and a cooking class.  Please notice the color of the eggs in the photo below.

They loved it!  Our chef put a few drops of food dye in each bowl with an egg, each child was able to whip it up and we scrambled them up together.  Move over Food Network.  After they tasted their creation they sat around and enjoyed listening to another young lady read to them the story "Green Eggs and Ham".  Oh, it was read on an iPhone, because no one was able to find their copy of the book.  We had some other stories for them and some crafts and they sure had a wonderful time. 

While they were all stretched out on a blanket listening to a book being read one of the parents commented to me that these are the things that kids always remember.  That is so true.  Part of what we do, everyday, is make memories.  Children need fond memories of home and of church.  Bible stories, memory verses and the excitement of learning and singing and experiencing the Joy of being with God's people in God's house. 

Make some good memories for the sake of the next generation that must come to Christ.
