Comfortability and familiarity are the keys to most relationships. We listen to our quiet inner voice when it sends us a message about the person to whom we are speaking: either “Danger - retreat!” or “Welcome them in - everything is OK.” Or how many of us go to the same restaurants because they know us and we are familiar with the atmosphere (and menu)?
How blessed am I to witness both of these traits in the parents who utilize MBUMC “God’s Zoo” or nursery. Moms and Dads rest easy when they come to their child’s room and see the same familiar faces there to love on the children. Moms and Dads are also comfortable with the atmosphere knowing the check-in system and number of team members in each room help keep their child safe in their absence.
The children experience the same sort of comfortablility with the same people caring for them. However, sometimes it takes them a little longer to come around - that is where our new COLORING Book comes in.
The nursery, with the help of Linda and Adam Cole, has created a MBUMC God’s Zoo coloring book which features pictures of the animals in the nursery. The more they are exposed to the MBUMC ministry that was created just for them, the more familiar and comfortable they will feel. The increase in these should help reduce the anxiety, for some at, drop off. Other ministries that children can participate in are also highlighted - so older siblings can enjoy the book also.
In addition to being used for specific events in our ministry, the books will be sold in the MBUMC Bookstore for $3.99. Come by and see some of the fun that is coming from God’s Zoo.
Be Blessed In Him,
Cindy Stafford
Nursery Director
