Here’s an idea from Billy Burns to store away for next year’s Easter!!!
What a weekend. In our three weekend services, we had hundreds of boys and girls who were given the opportunity of a lifetime … the privilege to have Jesus become the Lord of their lives. We had all of the ingredients ready for the weekend, the bait, the tools, and the anointing.

Super Sunday night is a once a month evening event. This event is theme based and allows all the children get involved. This month the theme is “Stars”. We will have service outside under the stars as we play “Gamma Games” and eat star shapes cookie. We will have a “SUPER STAR PANEL” which will include a Sport Star(Dunk Master J), a Rock Star(Oshgosh Josh), a Movie Star(Joe cool) and a Wanna be Star(our resident clown, Bubbles). On the order of the old show “WHATS MY LINE”, the children question all the panelist. Our talk show Interviewer, end the questioning with the famous line “WILL THE REAL SUPER STAR PLEASE STAND UP”. Our new convert Bubbles stands, the real super star now lives in her. We end the evening with a Celestial Fashion Fling. An award goes to the most outrageous Star Fashion. Everyone receives a little star keychain as a memento of the evening. Super Sunday Night’s can be a real BLAST !!

One area I believe we are failing our children in is the area of worship. In many of today’s churches children are separated from the main worship service. This is not a bad thing because it let’s us get it down to their level. The problem is we will teach them a lesson they can understand, but leave out other parts of worship. Personally, I believe that the message or lesson is a form of worship but I also believe that music is a form of worship. We seem to have this thing about teaching children songs only on certain occasions. We need to be teaching our children songs to praise and worship God every week. Make it an important part of their life so they grow up understanding that God gave us a gift of music not to curse but to praise his name. We need to teach them what the Psalms are and how we still can use them in worship today.
