1st Explorers After-School Ministry Update

1st Explorers welcomed a new assistant director on their first day back from Christmas break. Kayla Hartman is her name and she hit the ground running! A big “thank you” to Andrew Beck for serving as Interim Assistant Director for several weeks.

The theme last week was Kindness which was kicked off by Cheryl Beck in chapel on Monday and reinforced by Kayla at Friday’s chapel with the story of the Good Samaritan. The children enjoyed the movie “Elemental” which depicts kindness in action in multiple ways. 

In the midst of the yucky weather during the week, there were 2 beautiful outdoor days on Monday and Thursday. Curtis Collins, from the Health Department, came to play with the children on Thursday and they had a really great time with him.

Thank you to those who have contributed snacks to the program. There is always a need for them!
