Who knew paper airplanes and bubbles could be so much fun! The eight children who had a blast at our last Parent’s Night Out before the summer. It was a great mix of children. Four girls and four boys came to play with our volunteers, while mom and dad enjoyed a much needed break. Besides making and flying our paper airplanes, and dancing in the bubbles from the best bubble machine ever, we made heart pictures frames, played Hullabloo, and even enjoyed the boys Olympic style leaps onto the crash cushions. It was a great evening made possible by our awesome volunteers! Special thanks go to the Christian Navigators, and the Couples in Christ class who support out Parent’s Night Out Events.
Our next Parent’s Night Out is in September. So enjoy your Summer, and we’ll see you again in the Fall!
Blessings,
Kim
What an amazing night! The Porter Academy Art show and sale opened with a flurry of excitement over the young student’s art pieces. Parents, grandparents, Porter Academy Staff and Mt Bethel members enjoyed refreshments as they viewed the gallery in the B hall.
Barbara Ramer, principal of Porter Academy, was very grateful to Mt Bethel for hosting their first art show and sale that benefited the Matthew C. Roberts scholarship fund. “The art looks great, and the children are so proud to see their pieces displayed,” stated Ramer. To date, the art show has raised $1200 dollars for the scholarship fund.
The show generated a lot of excitement and a greater awareness of Mt Bethel’s Special Needs Ministry, while spotlighting a great school that provides a wonderfully supportive learning environment, Porter Academy. What a blessing to work with the staff at Porter, and to have the opportunity to meet some of the artists and their families at the gallery opening. I am grateful that God got us altogether for this wonderful event.
Note cards of the children prints will be available in the bookstore until the end of May. You may special order prints of the children’s art until the end of May by contacting me.
Thanks to everyone who made this show and sale possible!
Rev. Kim McGarr
