Big Happenings at Rock Bridge Chatsworth!

Tons of exciting stuff happening in our midst this summer and it's just getting started! In the coming weeks we will have our first Adventure Week [VBS on STEROIDS] at Bagley and we're right in the middle of some VERY cool Independence Day [week] activities that have been amazing. Join us Friday night in Eton as we play some Skee-ball, basketball and T-ball with kids!

So what's next? Glad I asked! We are about to embark on an incredible journey to transform our Children's Ministry space into a spectacular jungle/tropical rain-forest. We've collaborated with some incredible volunteers and staff to get a general plan and the new space will ABSOLUTELY ROCK YOUR WORLD. Our very agressive goal is to have the work done in time for Adventure Week which begins on Sunday July 29. This is a perfect time to capitalize on the momentum we are already seeing and it will also give those visiting us an incredible experience and a chance to build on board that momentum!

With that in mind, I will be in contact very soon to give details and work-day schedules that will allow all of us a chance to be part of this incredible journey, it will indeed take an army but I am confident we will get it done and much of the work is easy painting and basic labor.

The first thing we need to do is get both of our storage rooms cleared out so we can convert them to class space that is closer to the lobby. Two amazing volunteers have already cleared one of those rooms so this Sunday we will gather right after service and clear out the other room. I suspect this will take less than thirty minutes.

Here's a look at some pending projects you can help with:

• Basic labor:
• Basic painting [Even I can help with this]
• Getting new storage rooms organized
• Remove and replace ceiling tiles [Lots of ladder time - but NOT high up]
• Remove existing and/or hang new themed curtains - GONNA BE AWESOME
• Possibly some sewing to recover furniture

• Vic Webb is heading a 'design team' and will need help with the following:
• Finalizing design plans - if you have artistic vision - get on board!
• BASIC painting [Even I can help with this]
• Artistic painting [This is more specialized, but you don't have to be Van Gogh]
• 3-D Tree design [Steady with a utility knife - not too hard, but slow work]
• General decorating to have proper design flow from hallway to rooms

You get the point. We are beyond excited about how this transformation will raise our kids ministry to a whole new level - get involved to make it happen!
