Kid’s ROCK Volunteers ROCK!
I am so overwhelmed with emotion I can’t decide whether to cry or jump for joy…so I’ve done both. We went double today and what a day! I can’t tell you how excited I was…there was just an expectancy and energy in the atmosphere that was almost uncontainable. I felt like a kid on Christmas morning. Not only was exciting…it went amazing! The Kid’s ROCK volunteers stepped up to the plate and hit it out of the ballpark. Let me give you a few snippets of what I have heard.
- We served a total of 111 kids today not including the 3o extra kids from first service that stayed for second service. This is about a 22% growth from our average of 89 kids on a Sunday.
- We started 2 new classes in Kid’s ROCK and Pastor Matthew started 1 new class for ReMix kids. These classes were designed to serve volunteer kids so they would not have to sit in the same service twice. We had the privilege of pouring into 30 kids for not one service but two! How incredible.
- My daughter Courtney would not stop talking about the ReROCK class (class for volunteer kids) on the way home. She even kept making her sister take her ear buds out to hear about what she had learned. Rodney and Tammy Orr did an amazing job with them today!
- I had to go make copies of materials for our ROCK Star class because we had so many children we ran out. We had 23 kids total in that class. We average around 14.
- Our nursery workers blew it up today! They started a new system which gives parents feedback on what was going on with their babies during the service! Parents loved it!
- Had a parent say ” I kept waiting for my number to go up on the screen but it never did!” What incredible nursery workers! Do you have any idea what that means to a parent who has such a desire to enter into a service and never can because they always have to go get their child. This was their first experience at ROCK Church and they were amazed!
- All I heard all day was how nice and friendly the Kid’s ROCK volunteers were…way to show the heart of Jesus!
I know there are so many other stories I am forgetting to tell in my exhaustion but I had to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU A MILLON TIMES OVER FOR EVERY Kid’s ROCK volunteer who took it to a whole nuther level! I LOVE YOU! Really I can’t say it enough…You Guys Are AMAZING!
