JESUS IS ALIVE!!!!

Easter Sunday back in Kidz Zone was so much fun!  We talked about being alive in Christ Jesus because of His resurrection or being dead in our sins!  We sang about how amazing God's love is, the One Way and the kids favorite song...Romans 16:19~which says "The God of Peace will soon crush satan, God will crush him underneath His feet!"  This is what happened that beautiful Easter morning many years ago, when Jesus rose again, satan was crushed:) 

We also had some fun outside with cascarones!  Cascarones are a Spanish tradition in which an egg is cleaned out and confetti is put inside.  On Easter morning, you take the eggs, crush them, throw the confetti in the air and yell "Jesus is Alive!"  We had so much fun celebrating the Living Jesus!

Getting ready to "open the tomb"

Hallelujah!  The tomb is empty!  JESUS IS ALIVE!!

The Easter Pageant That Almost Wasn't

Palm Sunday, Kidz Zone put on the Easter Program, "The Easter Pageant That Almost Wasn't."  It was a great show with a lot of laughs and great performances!  The kids worked so hard and had so much fun with it.  They also learned that Easter isn't about the Easter Bunny, chocolate bunnies or pretty clothes!  It is about Jesus loving us so much that He died on the cross to save us~BUT thankfully the story doesn't end there!  He rose again so we can live with Him forever:)

Who is the driver of your life?

This week was our band week...and I just want to give a shout out to our band members, Jose Portillo, Norm Jones and Mark Minneman.  They are doing an awesome job and the kids are having a blast rockin' out with them every other week!

This week we continued our study of the Lord's Prayer in Kid Worship.  We have reached the part "May your kingdom come and what you want be done, here on Earth as it is in heaven."~Matthew 6:10.  We talked about letting God have control of our lives, and not to be a back seat driver!  Someone has to be the driver of our lives, and it should be GOD!  Trying to tell God how life should be, just gets confusing and can be dangerous.  We don't need to be backseat drivers because God knows what is best for us!
