What a joy it was to have the children of The Maker Fun Factory Vacation Bible School lead us in worship. We all enjoyed their singing and leadership. Thank you to all the parents who shared their children with us this week.

Thank you to our wonderful group of youth and adult volunteers who made Maker Fun Factory possible!

Thanks to our Leader, Michelle Weeks for all her hard work. During worship our rockets all malfunctioned during the Final Fun Shop Finale on Sunday morning.

She wanted us to see the video below that shows the rocket balloon scoring through the goal posts.
