Wednesday night at church

Each Wednesday night at church there is a Bible study for the adults and kids.  What I think is neat is that both groups study the same topic, just in different ways.  As the adults looked at baptism tonight, the kids examined how God worked through water in the Bible.  They then created some short dramas to illustrate what they learned!

Faith in costume and ready to perform!  In the first act she was a princess!  Pharoh's daughter to be exact!
 
Action!  Princess Faith has discovered baby Moses in the water, and Moses' sister Miriam tells the princess she will care for the baby until he is old enough to live at the palace!
 
This is from act two.  Now Moses (with the staff) is grown and asking Pharoh (Shane) to let his people go!  Shane says "sure" only to decide later that he wants to kill the Israelites!  He really enjoyed saying that!
 
Act three - moving way ahead to Jonah!  Jonah is paying boat captain Faith for a ticket to board a departing ship!  The kids all did so well, and it is always fun to see them so excited about things they are learning at church.
 
Finally, an Olivia picture to end the post!  It's hard to believe she will be five months old at the end of the week!!  I could just kiss those chubby cheeks all day long!  We love hearing her laugh, and the kids really enjoy discovering what she finds to be funny!  Usually it's some strange noise Shane makes, which of course he loves!  And she is really trying to communicate with us, or so it seems, as she likes to make many happy noises throughout the day!  Lately the two older kids have been fighting over who will hold her first when she wakes up in the morning!  Those are the kind of fights that actually warm a mother's heart!
