Children’s Ministry Wisdom
Things you might not know if it were not for children’s ministry: • In a room full of preschoolers, anything can happen when you close your eyes to pray. • Prayer requests reveal a lot about parents. • Helium tanks should be chained down tightly. • Cheap glue adheres to skin. • Kool Aid and song motions do not mix. • Grand pianos are not as durable as you might think. • Church maintenance men do not have a sense of humor. • Offering money always rolls to the other side of the room when dropped. • Hand-me-down sound systems can get loud when the adult service is taking communion. • Ushers do not have a sense of humor. • Parachute games should not be used in a room with a chandelier. • Animal crackers can be sneezed out the nose. • Girls are superior to boys. • There are reasons why pastor’s kids have a bad reputation. by Roger Fields ADD YOUR OWN IN COMMENTS!

It was almost as big as the Giant Donut I had in Texas! I ordered without even looking at the menu (or the price) and dove in! That is one giant sandwich! There no way I was going to be able to finish it! So what do you do with a giant sandwich that you can’t finish? Play…
