Serving with the Life Group

We love our Life Group…. they have become like family to us since we have moved to the Midwest.  We meet with them nearly every Saturday night as we eat together, share about our lives and then study Scripture.  One of the cool things that we get to do together is serve.  Our group went to the church on December 17 to help prepare the Fellowship Hall for our Christmas Reception. 

Grace helped to make the napkins pretty by putting them in a pattern… she was a diligent worker!  (We are working on character traits with the girls, and “diligent” is the one that we are working on right now.   They love saying this big word, but we hope that they do more than just repeat it over and over:  that they will live that quality in all they do as for the LORD!)

Some of the older kids, Camryn and Parker, put doilies and centerpieces on the tables while the adults decorated with tablecloths and other arrangements.

Tracy and Brian cut up the fruit – cantaloupes and pineapples.

Where were the little ones?  Danny and Bart graciously volunteered to manage the toddlers and preschoolers in the gym.  They set up one of the bouncy houses and got out balls and riding toys.  We all joined in on the fun when the real work was completed!   Great job, everyone!
