[Kid Inspiration]

Let me give you the run down from last weekend and camp last week!

A lot of things happening:

• Voltage! We started a brand new age group this weekend (pre-teen; Yr5 and 6 for those in Aus) and had a camp last week - from Wed to Fri, couple hundred kids having a VERY powerful time with God!
• Primary/Elementary age groups are now: Fun House K-1, All Stars 2-4, Voltage 5-6 (not sure how they translate in different countries, but Kindergarten (K) is first year of school)
• 8 Massive services - Phew, I love Mondays!
• Pre-teens are different… a whole new style needed to really reach them!
• Camp can be a really powerful and defining time in a life, set apart from the familiar kids can experience God!
• We will be starting mid-week small groups with Voltage age group, so the only way you can be involved in this age group is to commit to this! Very pumped about that, a greater level of commitment and ministry!
• Parents reported some awesome conversations with their kids after camp!
• I talked about Song of Solomon a lot during a message at camp… Song 2:5… look it up!
• Pre-teens need the ‘talk’ at camp! No boyfriends/girlfriends stuff like that! Never thought I would have to deal with hormones in Children’s Ministry!
• Rearranging a room can add big time freshness to a program! Need to do it more often!
• I love camps! The best time of the year you get feedback from parents!

Two weekends brings up our Vision Sunday weekend… that will be huge!
