We are in need of some more help with our Sunday morning and Wednesday night childrens ministry. We minister to children from babies all the way up to th 4 grade! Each week it seems like more and more children are coming. This is terrific! But we also need additional help from our church family. If you are interested in helping please let Pastor Heath know. Here are several great reasons to get involved in the Childrens Ministry:

......................................................................................... Upcoming and Current Outreaches:


Pack-A-Sack at Mildred Helms Elementary Pack-A-Sack is a ministry to help feed disadvantaged children (from Mildred Helms Elementary School, in our local area) over the weekend. These children receive meals from their school during the week; but the schools social worker pinpoints the children who frequently don't have food over the weekend and the sacks, full of about 12 to 14 healthy snacks, are designated for them. So, throughout the school year, we need prepackaged snacks healthy snacks are always preferred. The snacks must be sealed and ready to eat. (No cooking or preparing required.) We are providing snacks weekly for 25+ children this year. Please e-mail Heath@gracechristian.com for more info. Mentorship at Mildred Helms Elementary Mildred Helms has asked us for help with mentoring some of their children. Do you have some time to read and talk with a child who could use some encouragement and love? What a great opportunity to serve our community with the love of Christ! Please see Pastor Randy for more details. Pinellas Hope Dinner Outreach Oct. 2 Pinellas Hope is a temporary shelter for homeless men and women. The residents may sleep undisturbed, take a shower, have a place to keep their personal nd belongings, and have 3 meals of day. On Oct. 2 , well be purchasing, preparing, transporting, and serving dinner for over 200 residents. This is a wonderful opportunity to show the love of Christ to those less fortunate and in need of some encouragement and support. Please e-mail Heath@gracechristian.com if you are willing to serve with us.

Many of the children from the neighborhood around our church come on Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings. Helping in a classroom or nursery is wonderful opportunity for our church to reach out. Serving in the Childrens Ministry is a great way to meet new people at church and become better connected to the ministry and heartbeat of the church. Loving and serving children is close to the heart to of God (Matthew 19:14). God is just as concerned for the welfare and Christian growth of our young children as he is adults. Getting involved in the classrooms and/or nurseries is a special way to display Gods love to others.
