  Aug 13th
  Let’s Celebrate! Our teams are working it and moving it! The above picture exemplifies how our team work makes the dream work! (Pictured above, newlyweds Mike and Stefanie McPhail)
  
  Here are some exciting stats after VBS Move Week 2:
  - Last weekend Parkview families brought in $1,799.86
  - Over the past 2 weekends over $3,000 raised so far to CARE for kids in foster care
  - 30 of our goal of 100 backpacks has been achieved!
  - 3 Journey bags are being delivered this week to kids that are in transition
  - Over 1,000 children in attendance
  - 17 NEW families visited Parkview Kids last weekend
  - 360 Parkview Kids Volunteers made last weekend happen!
  - 97 NEW VBS volunteers jumped in to help as well!
  Tina Shoemaker, Backyard Coach at 9am, shared this information on our Facebook group earlier in the month. The new “First 5” app is awesome! See her now below…
  
  This week a new app was released by Proverbs 31 Ministries called “First 5”. The idea is that too often we wake up in the morning and flip to social media to set the course for our day. Instead, this app will program your alarm and when you turn the alarm off in the morning a 5 minute devotional will pop up. This week they covered the first 5 chapters of John. I have felt a tangible difference this week starting my day from the very first moment with God. I would encourage you to check it out and dig deeper! Can’t wait to “move it” with many of you this weekend at VBS!‪ #‎First5‬
  
  Stay in the loop! Join our online community by searching “Parkview EC Team” in the facebook search box and request to join. We’d love to connect with you outside of the weekend. THANK YOU for being a part of what God is doing at Parkview!
  
  BIG hugs and much love,

  Jul 30th
  Let’s Celebrate! Our VBS-MOVE kicks off THIS WEEKEND!
  
  We will put our Volunteer of the Week on hold during the month of August so we can focus on VBS. We are expecting lots of new VBS volunteers and families coming through our ministry in August so let’s get ready to give them all a warm welcome!
  
  PLEASE be sure to arrive at least 30 minutes before the start of service for your team’s huddle. Be equipped and empowered!
  - All Garden/Nursery volunteers meet Amelia for the huddle in Ones B
  - All Backyard/Preschool/Clubhouse volunteers meet Carrie for your huddle in the YELLOW room for all services
  Lisa Dorman has all our worship songs and fun-filled activities available online. Please review before your serve time. Thank you! https://parkviewec.wordpress.com/category/curriculum/
  
  Our lobby may be busier than usual with walk-ins for VBS. Please give yourself plenty of time to check in and get your name tag. If you see someone who looks lost, please ask if you can help them. It takes a TEAM and we need all hands on deck. : )
  
  Here are five top quotes to help us all remember the importance of our children’s ministry:
  1. “When you take a child by the hand, you take a parent by the heart.”
  2. “When you reach a child you change a life, when you reach a parent you change an entire family.”
  3. “If I could relive my life, I would devote my entire ministry to reaching children for God!” -D.L. Moody
  4. “Children are not the church of tomorrow…they are the church of today.”
  5. “Let the children come to me and don’t hinder them for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these.” Jesus
  THANK YOU for your dedication to our Early Childhood Ministry!
  
  BIG hugs and much love,

  Jul 15th
  
  It’s summerrrrrr! I hear Olaf singing that, don’t you? Gotta love Olaf, but we have no snowmen in our summer theme this year. We do however have water! It’s time for Camp Splish Splash! Camp Splish Splash will run through July and teach our preschoolers that God’s way is perfect.
  
  July Weeks 1 and 2, our preschoolers will hear about Noah, his ark, the multitude of animals and – you guessed it – water! We will learn of God’s Plan for Noah and how he built the ark exactly how God said to do it because Noah knew that God’s way is perfect. He knew that he could believe what God said and we can believe what God says too!
  
  July Weeks 3 and 4, we will finish our story of Noah and learn how God told Noah and his family and all of the animals that they could get out of the boat. Then God made a very important promise and gave us a beautiful, colorful rainbow up in the sky as a sign of His promise. Every time we see a rainbow in the sky, it’s a reminder of that promise that God made. God ALWAYS keeps His promises, because God’s way is perfect!
  
  As we share these stories with preschoolers, we want not only to have fun, but to show them solid examples of people following God’s way and it being the perfect way. We want to teach them to trust God’s way in the easier things so that when life gets harder, they will know that God’s way is perfect, and that’s the way they should choose.
  
  Stay tuned for information about “MOVE” our Vacation Bible School program starting in August.
  
  The Monthly Memory verse is “God’s way is perfect.” 2 Samuel 22:31, NIRV
  
  The Bottom Line is God’s way is perfect.
  
  July Weeks 1 and 2 – July 4th, 5th, 11th, 12th
  
  July Weeks 3 and 4 – July 18th, 19th, 25th, 26th
