Insanely busy helping at school, to build relationships.

Life never seems to stop for even a day in our house.  The Last few months  we have been spending time up at the school helping in any way possible.  Mostly to build relationships with kids who are in our children's classes. And, also so that they will feel comfortable to come to Kids Club or the church.   We have been helping with guided reading in the mornings in Dawson's classroom, one day a week. And, helping volunteer as a parent helper in Brayden's classroom, and I (Melissa) went on an incursion with Makayla's class.  I also have been volunteering in the choir room as their pianist.   This has been great, because as long as a child asks me about church, I am then free to say or share whatever I would like.    Recently we had a very special night and the kids performed down in the city at the Crowne Theatre.  It was an amazing experience even for me with full stage production and lights, and sound.. It was amazing.  The kids from our local primary school did an amazing job.   And, the music teacher worked so hard to pull off such a great evening. Here is a picture of the choir up on stage during rehearsal sound check the morning of our show.  Notice,I actually played keyboard for the performance... Because the music teacher actually wrote the second song we performed. So, I was MORE than happy to let him "showcase" it, as well as it had 25(seriously) key changes!!!!
