Camp KIDJAM 2010: Deposits Due!
Camp KIDJAM 2010 is opened for registration. I highly recommend that you get your deposits in as soon as possible, as there is only ONE camp in North Texas this year and the slots fill up FAST! The total cost for camp is $255 with a $50 deposit. Please see Mandy Turner and sign up at the Children's Table in the Children's Hall!
This year's Camp KIDJAM will be held at Austin College in Sherman, Texas, running from July 22nd-25th. All students entering 3rd-6th grade are eligible to participate!
This year's them: JUMP! put faith in motion
We're going to take a look at Paul's journeys and watch the story of his radical faith unfold. From the moment his faith was sparked by the light on the Road to Damascus, all the way to the crucial works of Paul and Timothy speaking to the next generation of the church, we trace Paul's story of faith—a never-ending adventure.
Kids are faced with critical questions about faith and they're offered an amazing variety of answers. Camp KidJam gives kids an opportunity to find answers to some of those vital questions through practical applications like:
* How to navigate the Bible
* How to personalize Scripture
* How to worship God with their life
Join us this summer as we JUMP and learn to put faith in motion!
