Equipping, September 2002

From: Elsie Rempel, Director of Education and Nurture
Subject: KidsPak Projects
I just finished reading through this year’s KidsPak and would like to
share my excitement about this year’s Sunday School project book. These are
projects worthy of spiritual, emotional, and yes, financial investment through
your children’s collections.
I’ve spent many years at the helm teaching and coordinating Sunday School,
and I know how good it is to have a handy, well organized, user friendly and worthwhile
collection of projects.
There are always other good choices, but consider the advantages of using our
own Mennonite Church Canada produced KidsPak:
-
The children in your congregation will develop a greater sense of Mennonite-flavoured
Christian stewardship. The joy of giving can become contagious when your collection
time is accompanied by the stories and activities in KidsPak!
-
Your whole congregation can develop a greater awareness of the activities
of the broader Mennonite Church. Your Sunday School could teach (and even challenge!)
the adults about what God is doing in the broader Mennonite Church. The projects
range from developing great resources to supporting Witness activities in Canada,
Thailand, Macau and a global Mennonite art project. The Art Display may come to
a church near you after it inspires participants at the next Mennonite World Conference
in Zimbabwe in 2003.
-
Need extra copies of the activities pages? You can retrieve the entire booklet
in electronic form from the Mennonite Church Canada website.
-
Finally, these projects make participating in God’s mission a lot of
fun!
