2010 Update

Mission 18:16 has had such a great year so far for 2010. We split up the children's bible study according to the ages of the children at Westwood. Ages 7 and under are in a separate class than those in the 8 and above class. We've seen some growth in the children spiritually and seen about 2 kids from these outreach bible studies get baptized. So the seeds that we are planting in these children are growing and you can tell. Just keep praying for these kids and their families.

Also we have stopped doing Thursday night bible study at Southview. We take the kids to church, Oak Park Church, to Thursday Night Live to be with other kids. They seem to be enjoying it and are learning lots.

Update for 2009

After we finished up our Armor of God theme we dug right into the Fruits of the Spirit. At the end of our study we created a real fruit basket for our Mission 18:16 kids and they took it home during the Thanksgiving week.

Then after the Thanksgiving break, we dug into the Word and learned about the coming of Jesus and Jesus's birth before Christmas.
