Daily Scripture

In the same way, let your light shine in front of others. Then they will see the good things you do. And they will praise your Father who is in heaven.

NO CAR LANE APRIL 24 and CHUCK E CHEESE

There will be no car lane tomorrow, April 24th as we set up a tent for the Yard Give in the front parking lot. Please do not park in this lot either as there will be large trucks and people jack hammering into the asphalt!

Once the tent is up though, you should be able to park in the lot that afternoon.

Also, if you have large items to donate to the Yard Give, you may begin bringing on Thursday afternoon or all day on Friday, the 25th.  If you have clothing or bagged items to donate, you may bring in to Shining Light, and we will see that they get to the right place.

____________________________________________

Also, we raised $224 from our Chuck E Cheese Spirit Night!  Thank you so much!  We have targeted the money to go to our gardening activities with the children.  Ms. Nancy and Ms. Larinda in Toddler 1 are spearheading a naturescape for our children with plans for flowers, vegetables and herbs to be planted around the property.  We are so excited about this new endeavor!  Studies have shown huge benefits to children learning about the growing process and caring for our earth, and it has inspired us to add this to our curriculum.

April 26 Yard Give

Franklin Christian Church will be hosting a Yard Give on Saturday, April 26.  We are looking for good donations of gently used clothing, toys, furniture, home decor, etc.

We are really wanting more toys this year, so if your child has outgrown some things, please consider donating!

How to donate:  we will take donations beginning Monday, April 21st.  We are going to store in the old house.  If it is a furniture item, it can be brought on Thursday afternoon, April 24, Friday, the 25th or before 7:00 am on Saturday, April 26th.

***If you are donating an appliance or major item, please make sure it is in working order and functioning.

****Because we will be setting up the tent on Thursday morning, April 24th, we will be unable to do car lane that day.  Please park across the creek that morning.  You may use the parking lot in the front in the afternoon.

Thank you!

We are in need of a few thousand plastic eggs for our egg hunt on April 19th.

If you could donate some plastic eggs to us, we would greatly appreciate it!  We will take any size (but preferably small) empty, plastic egg whether loose or in a package.

So if you have some leftover from last year OR you can pick some up next week, please bring them in and place then in the container that we used for children's vitamins.

Thank you!
