Dear Grace,

I know it's not the best way to do this, but since it's pretty short notice, would you mind sending out the e-mail below to the cell groups, so we can let our parents know about Hans' visit with our kids this Sunday?  Thanks so much!

Blessings, Cindy

Dear South Valley parents,

One of the themes of our Friday night children's program this summer was "Faith Heroes", where we studied real-life Christians like us, whose relationship with Jesus and faith in God has helped them through some pretty big circumstances!  One of the people we studied was Mr. Hans Wilhelm, a pastor and missionary who has devoted his life to sharing the gospel of Christ.

Hans will be speaking at our church this Sunday, and we have invited him to spend some time with our kids afterward.  From 12:20 to about 12:40 p.m., all of our children's Sunday school classes will be in Room 103 (in the corner of the foyer) for a chance to meet and talk to Mr. Wilhelm. If you need to pick up/sign out your child, please go there to find them.  Also, since this special event crosses over with lunch time, you are encouraged to purchase a lunch plate for your child(ren) and hold it for them until they are dismissed.  Or, you are welcome to bring your food over and come join us as well!  Hope to see you!

Hi, Cindy and Jacqueline,

 

We can inform the parents that the kids will be in Room 103, so they can pick them up there.

Or if any of them need to leave early, they are free to do so.

 

Thanks a lot for this opportunity.

 

Wenhua

Dear Jacqueline,

Thank you for your question.  Yes, I can appreciate your concern, and I thought about that too, when I chose the time. Like you, I would like to encourage as many people to participate in this as possible.  Unfortunately, the problem is that there is not a good time that will fit everyone. Brother Hans is already speaking for both Chinese services (9:30 and 11 AM).  Therefore, he requested that we choose a time near the end of the second service.  We also have several families that need to leave right after lunch, for Chinese school etc...Therefore, if we chose a later time, both Hans and those families would not be able to stay either.

That is why I decided on 12:20. Since it is just a few minutes after service/class ends, hopefully more kids and parents would be willing to stay or eat lunch a little bit later, just so they can attend this.  For those families that want to purchase lunch, perhaps the parents can go and buy plates for themselves and their child(ren) and bring it to Room 103, to join us?  I cannot think of a better solution than this.  If you have any ideas, please do let me know.  I would love your help.

Thanks and blessings,

Cindy

Dear Cindy,

Sorry.  I have a question that meeting with Mr. Hans is at 12:20pm.  If student wants to have lunch or their parent wants to check out, they will miss the meeting.

Jacqueline

Dear Fall Sunday school teachers and summer leaders,

If you joined us for our children's program during the summer months, you may remember that one of our themes was "Faith Heroes", where we were introduced to some real-life followers of Jesus, who have been through some incredible adventures of faith.  Mr. Hans Wilhelm, was one of those individuals, and he is coming to our church this Sunday, 9/22, to speak to our Chinese congregation.

Afterward, he has graciously agreed to stay and spend some time meeting with our children as well.  Teachers, please bring yourselves and your class of children to Room 103 (the classroom in the corner of the foyer), at 12:20 p.m. this Sunday to meet him.  We will do some introductions, take some photos, and possibly have a brief "question and answer" time with Hans.  Don't miss this special event! 

*Please forward to any other summer helpers that I may have missed.  Thank you!*  Hope to see you!

Blessings,
Cindy
