Legacy Builders Kicks Off

The King’s Grant Baptist Church opened a new Sunday school class on the 13^th of January 2008 to a great reception. The Legacy Builders group held an open house that served as an initial meet and greet and attracted 28 people.  One of our first setbacks was the fact that the class was too big for the room we had selected so we decided to move back to the choir room, at least temporarily. Minor glitches aside the class has set its future sights firmly on building relationships that are guided by the word of God and applicable to every day life. 

One of the strengths of the class will certainly be the diversity of experience that the group brings to the table. That diversity, coupled with a singularity of purpose and good planning is an exciting combination for a great future and a great legacy.  

We opened the session with introductions and a couple of ice breaker activities designed to help us get to know each other and to show the duality of the difficulty we have focusing on our relationships with each other while maintaining focus on our relationship with Christ. After a few laughs and a bit of information gathering it was time to close in prayer and call it a day.  

The plan for the immediate coming weeks is to set some time for praise and prayer requests, a few minutes continuing to bond as a group while moving into our first study book called “Making Great Kids”.  The first session discusses 1^st Samuel and asks directly if our kids are really our kids at all? 

We hope to see you there! Cheers, Craig Goodmurphy

New Class Location is Needed

Since there were 28 present at the “meet and greet” fellowship on January 13, we quickly realized the need for a larger place to meet. Harvest Hall or the choir room are about the best locations for so many people, so what to do? 

Harvest Hall is not as comfortable as the choir room, so let me recommend we all meet in the bistro room for coffee and refreshments (until the choir actually leaves for the sanctuary). Then once they vacate the room, we can casually move down the hall to the choir room for announcements, prayer concerns and discuss the topic for the day. 

Leave a comment and let me know what you think, or write an e-mail to Craig or LaVeryl.
