JIREH CHURCH- Marlboro, NJ - December 6, 2009

What an amazing time we all had at the Jireh Church in Marlboro, NJ. The Jireh church is a church that maakes every effort to reach the chinese community. They invited Kids in Missions to share at their Children's Church program. A team of 19 traveled early Sunday morning and ministered by way of drama, Christmas puppet songs, object lessons, a game (Snowball fight), Grandpa Lou, Shelton and Sonkist and a brief message (The Parable of the Lost Sheep). Our ministry was well received and we look forward to an ongoing relationship with the Jireh Church for many years to come!

JONES BEACH - July 13, 2009

Along with the SGT Choir and Undignified from Smithtown Christian, Kids in Missions began the evening of ministry doing a new drama called "Into all the world" featuring our First Year Students. Our Second Year students, L.I.T.'s and leaders ministered next with an awesome drama "You are God". Desiree Cirillo did a fabulous job singing that worship song unto the Lord while our students did the "motions". Grandpa Lou also paid a visit with some help from Pastor Dave's kids Kaylee, Tyler and Kassie holding road signs.

After Pastor Rich Collingridge gave a brief salvation message, many gave their hearts to Jesus for the first time. It as a great night of ministry!

OCEAN GROVE NJ BEACH PAVILION - July 11, 2009

In spite of a strong wind blowing into the pavilion and our puppet stage falling down countless times, our Kids in Missions students, L.I.T.'s and leaders stood strong. We had the privilege of returning to Ocean Grove NJ and their Gospel Music Association which is fast becoming a tradition since 1997. We began with some fun song's, ministered by way of three dramas ("Shout the the Lord", "Meant to Live" and "You are God"). You are God was done while Desiree Cirillo did an outstanding job singing the vocals! Grandpa Lou and Shelton the Shark also paid a visit as well. Holding down the puppet stage, we also did "God's not Dead" and "F.A.I.T.H." To end our busy day, we stopped by Day's Ice Cream right down the block from the beach pavilion in Ocean Grove and on the way home stopped at the "Golf McDonald's" for a quick meal. It was a great day and we look forward to returning on August 14th.

SMITHTOWN DAY 2009 - June 7, 2009

In spite of a very hot day and working directly in the sun directly in front of Walgreen's, 22 of our students and L.I.T.'s along with our student leaders and many parent helpers handed out pencils and flyers promoting VBS and King's Kids Club. They also gave balloons to children along Main Street as well as wearing costumes (Skip, Priscilla, MC Walker and a chicken). One big hit were the puppets who sang songs while a crowd of people watched and enjoyed the music. Joining Kids in Missions were many members of our Evangelism xposion team who set up our Prayer Station and had opportunites to not only pray with many, but to openly share the gospel. It was an awesome day of not only promoting many events, but to be a "light in the darkness" on one of the most difficult mission fields in the world...LONG ISLAND!!!

It was a beautiful day in Smithtown, NY as our Kids in Missions team ministered at our town's Memorial Day Parade. Our students and L.I.T.'s handed out pencils to children along the parade route to help promote of VBS program as well as King's Kids Club which meets on Wednesday evenings. It was an awesome day of ministry! Check out the video we made while we marched!

SIDEWALK SUNDAY SCHOOL - April 26, 2009

We began 2009 with a great opportunity to minister at the SGT Missions Convention. Our students dressed up as clowns and ministered by way of drama, music and puppets.

This occurred at both 8:30 am & 12:15 pm in the Fellowship Center. It was great to see the students so enthusiastic as well as the kids who were watching. The dramas that were done were "You are God" as well as the Chair skit & the Heart skit. This was a great way to begin in ministry for our First Year Students who got a taste of ministry in front of a real crowd!
