FIESTA!

Once a year I have an activity for the little girls in our church ages 4-11.  This is so I can spend time with them and get to know them.  I pick a theme and I have a teaching time, games, prizes, crafts, food and lots of fun!  They are also encouraged to dress according to the theme. 
Last Saturday afternoon was our activity.  The theme this year was FIESTA!  There were 17 girls in attendance and we had sooooo much fun!  Every girl went home with a small pinata, bag of candy & prizes and a full tummy!  Those little girls can eat!  LOL!
This is a good way for me to get to know the younger girls in our church so when they become teenagers I already have a way to their hearts. 
I hope you enjoy the pictures!  They really did a great job in dressing up!

I miss my grandbaby!


In Corpus Christi, TX
I just wanted to share a few pictures of our kids and grandbaby!  I haven't seen them in 3 weeks and to be honest with you it seems longer!  I guess I'm getting prepared for when they leave for the mission field.  She is changing so much and so fast! 
If you would like to follow their blog, the address is:  rtngzapatafamily.blogspot.com

Please continue to pray for their safety on the road and that the Lord meets their needs as they are living by faith!

Happy 12th Anniversary Iglesia Bautista Fundamental!

Sunday evening we celebrated our church's anniversary!  We had a full house and a full evening!  All the adults and teens received a keychain with the church's name, phone number and our Pastor's name and the children received a toy.  All our music groups sang throughout the whole service which was a great blessing!  (I love music!)  We then had a time where each Sunday School class came up to the platform and presented gifts to the church.  These are gifts that the church can use such as nursery supplies, cleaning supplies, gift cards etc.  Our Pastor preached a message on what his desire was for our church.  We ended the service with singing "Happy Anniversary" and had balloons, a lite cake and a meal to end it all.  We had a great time!
I love my church!  Someone asked me once if I get tired of being so busy in the ministry.  Sure there are times I get physically tired and need a break or two but I love serving the Lord and doing for our church!  There's no greater occupation than serving Him!
