As July draws to a close, our thoughts turn to back-to-school shopping, carpool negotiations, try-outs and more. We look ahead and decide how we will spend our most precious resource this school year-our time. In which activities will our kids participate and where will we as adults serve? Where does our faith in God fit in? Know that we are praying for all our Hyde Park families as you get ready to tackle another school year.

 

We ask that you pray for us, too, as we form the volunteer teams that will make God's love real to Hyde Park's children this year. If you feel God might be calling you to serve in Children's Ministries, we have opportunities for you! Consider serving one to four times per month, either directly with children or in a supporting role. Call 253.5388 or e-mail Meagan for more information.
