LOGOS is all about our KIDS!  We have tons of fun, sharing time with each other and SPENDING time with God.  Our midweek, 3 hour program provides PLENTY for our kids and adults...praying time, playing time, and eating time!  Wow!

By following the LOGOS tradition, we have created a loving, Christian atmosphere where the children will be taught the #1 (and only) rule of LOGOS: 

Everyone is to treat everyone else as a Child of God.
No one has the right to treat anyone else as if he/she does not matter.

 

LOGOS is divided into four parts; each is equally important and all are loved!

˙         Scholarships – If you would like to sponsor a scholarship for a child/youth to attend LOGOS ($80 per year), we will gratefully accept your donation.

Please indicate above where you would like to assist, sign your name & return this form in the offering plate or to the church office.  THANKS & GOD BLESS YOU!

Bible Stories for Kids

 

 We sing Sanctuary every Wednesday to signal  the end of LOGOS...the words are:

Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary
Pure and holy, tried and true
With thanksgiving, I'll be a living
Sanctuary for You.

Lord, teach your children to stop the fighting,
Start uniting, all as one.
Let's get together, loving forever,
A sanctuary for You.

 

You should be able to hear the music to "Sanctuary" right now if you have enabled sound.  If not, you can listen to the tune of "Sanctuary" by going to the following page, scroll down to "Lord Prepare me to be a Sanctuary" and click and listen.  http://mrsmike.topcities.com/midi/
