The Power Of Words - From Kids

I was reading over some cards that I received from “Upstreet” last week and was blessed by some of the words of our kids at Fellowship. They are learning the power of words at a very young age. Here are some that blessed me that I wanted to share with you…

Dear Pastor John – I hope that your parents are better. Hopefully your trip was safe. Love Sarah. P.S. I think you are doing a great job. P.P.S. Cowboys Rock! (Obviously we still have some teaching to do here on the Cowboys part)

To Mr. John …From Luke …thank you for Pastoring people about God.

To Pastor John – I think you have been doing a good job as Pastor. I hope you will stay Pastor for as long as I am here. Have a good day. From Robbie

Pastor John – Thanks for helping my daddy ask Jesus into his heart. He says church is funny and it helps him. Thank you for helping my family come to church together church and KidVenture is fun. You are nice. Matt.

Words have the power to bless and encourage. I hope to see you Sunday as we dive into the “Power of Words.”

I too received cards from the Pre-K Kindergarten girls small group. They wrote some very kind and encouraging words. Way to go Dan and Kristi for leading the way with Fellowship's kids! Thanks again!

Kindness is such a virtue and I think Dan and Kristi did an awesome thing by not only teaching our kids this virtue, but also by helping them put it to action! Thank you Kristi and Dan for all your efforts with our children and willingness to follow God's direction in your lives and your ministry here at Fellowship :)
