This Halloween week we did a “Gavin the Friendly Ghost” Mad Lib and walked the pumpkin patch (a game mixing the concepts of music chairs and four corners). We made “funny bones” as our snack (pretzel sticks with marshmallows dipped in white chocolate) while we listened to the Valley of the Dry Bones Story from the book of Ezekiel. We did an experiment of mixing white vinegar and baking soda inside of a bottle with a balloon as the lid and watched the CO2 blow the balloon up to reveal a little balloon ghost. And we finished off the week learning Christmas songs for the Christmas show!

Assistant Director Kayla Hartman would love to have some folks from Sylva FBC help with the monthly Bible Q&A Time. Please see her for more details.
Anyone who would like to share a skill, present a program, read a story, etc., for After School would be most welcome. Just let Kayla know.
Snacks are always appreciated. Leave individually wrapped snacks on the cart at the back entrance to the church.
