Plan for February 10


I hope you enjoyed music last week! I am again sorry for telling you all along that your music would be on Jan 27, then switching you to Feb 3. Thank you all for responding with such flexibility and ease. 

This week's topic is one that many adults wrestle with, so our Alivers are getting a jump start! Enjoy letting them ask the question,


Some of the examples in today's lesson are pretty strong, such as God not sparing David's son. I think that the kids can handle it, but you have the liberty to tread lightly if you are more comfortable. If the conversation turns to the question of evil in the world, let them grapple with it, and assure them of God's love, but do not try to answer or fix their worldviews. It's all about asking questions, and giving them a safe place to explore God with their friends!

Teammate Swap!

As you already know, Amy Frederick has stepped up to lead VBS this year, and I could not be more excited about that. Even though I knew she absolutely loves Alive!, I have encouraged her to consider stepping away from Alive! in order to keep her church commitments manageable, and she has agreed. 

So, I am thrilled to announce that Jill Tucker has agreed to return as an Alive! leader for the remainder of the semester! Jill will take Amy's place on the schedule, so there will be no changes to your schedule due to this change. 

Jill will most likely have house showings throughout the rest of this semester that may occasionally make it difficult to be present on Sunday. I'm also working on setting up a "stand by" leader who can step in at a moment's notice for Jill or any of you. I think it's important to have three people when possible, since you have such a loud and lively group. 

Big thank yous to Amy and to Jill for their leadership. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns at all! Thanks to all of you,

Sarah
