UC Kids and Family Update September

Weekday School Connections
Last week UC Kids and Family Ministries set up a photo backdrop for our Weekday School families to capture first day of school memories!  Thank you to Miriam, Cindy, Patti, and Karen for joining me bright and early to help the families of our WDS have a special start to the school year!  Eye spy some familiar faces in the photos, do you? 
On Sunday we kicked off our school year programming!  
In UCKZ our pre-teens group started a new curriculum called Connect.  This curriculum is better suited for their age group.  Our pre-k through young elementary is enjoying the Holy Moly curriculum that we started last fall.  Our nursery kiddos got to enjoy Whirl curriculum but will be alternating between Whirl, Spark, and Holy Moly for this age group.  While this does seem like a lot of chaos there is consistency because all UC Kids will be learning from the same scripture each week.  
We also kicked off our UC Kids Arts and Little Lambs Choir.  We had snacks first and then split into our appropriate age levels to make some joyful noise!  Ms. Emily started with asking UCKA what they wanted to do this year.  They want to play instruments!  So she started with some music theory and those kiddos did a great job.  Ms. Olivia, assisted by Ms. Amy, led our Little Lambs in some familiar music.  I saw lots of smiles as I peaked in on them.  
The next two Sunday's you will not see my face on campus.  
On Sunday, September 20th I will be leading some of UCUMC on the Family Camping Trip.  Ms. Cindy, Mr. Matt, & Ms. Carrie will be holding down UC Kids Zone.  Ms. Emily and Ms. Olivia will be leading UC Kids Arts and Little Lambs.  
On Sunday, September 27th I will be on retreat with some of our preteen UC Kids and Mr. Allen at Camp Tekoa.  We are very excited to participate in The Tweens Vibe Retreat with other 4th, 5th, & 6th graders from the Western North Carolina Conference of the United Methodist Church.
