Our children and youth are very important to our church family. We took a Sunday night to celebrate the accomplishments of our Sunday School classes and teachers. Promotion Sunday 2009 was a service led by the children. Praise singing, choir, offering, and special prayer were all done by the children.
The children who were advancing to the next class were promoted during the service.
Joseph Ouellette, our children's minister, was the speaker for the service and he spoke on the subject, "Who's your Granny?" A very moving message... although the title would never seem that way!
All of our teachers and their families were honored with a dinner and time of fellowship following the service.
Sharon Bivens and my wife were surprised by a visit from Danny and Tommie Kay Stephens, their youth leaders from YEARS ago! :)
"Preparing for the King" was an all-day event held on a Saturday for the young ladies to encourage them to dedicate their lives to the service of God and let their life show His glory. Kaspri Photography took pictures of the girls after they had dressed up for a banquet escorted by their Dad's or family member. My wife was their trial run for lighting and such — after a lot pictures were snapped, she put on a crown...
It struck her funny! As you can see below, she is a beautiful example of His glory (and I am a little partial!)

The pics of "Her Royal Highness" still make me laugh. :)
LOVE the pic of Sis. Karla with the crown! Priceless.
