CDO Approved for 100 children! |
|
Our Children’s Day Out (CDO) program passed its initial requirements set by the Texas Department of Protective and Family Services. This means the church can now offer full-time day care for up to 100 children.
The pre-school is open from 8:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. Monday – Friday and cares for children from six weeks to pre-kindergarten age. Its curriculum is based on the Texas Education and Knowledge skills assessment. The center provides a variety of activities throughout the day including Chapel, Music, Science, Recreation, Crafts and skilled Instructional Time.
The Director, Reverend Kristi Lounsbury, stated, “This is only the beginning for Children’s Day Out. We have wonderful plans for continued expansion. Our first step will be to apply for Child Care Services which will allow for families of all incomes to experience and benefit from our program.”
Children’s Day Out still has space available for children. Parents may choose two, three, four, or five days of care for their child. Rates depend upon the enrolled attendance and age of the child. For more information, please use the CDO link on the home page of this website or call Kristi at 940-482-1977.

Today, I've reached the final excuse that actually sparked the whole series of the top fifteen reasons for avoiding transformational worship gatherings.
The other fourteen ranged from complaints about the checkered history of the church to frustration over unclear and divergent doctrines to the personal sense of feeling unworthy, unwelcomed, or unknowledgable about the mysteries of church language and customs. |

Several weeks ago, I watched this year's induction into the Football Hall of Fame. In almost every case, these exceptional athletes first gave honor to discipline of practicing their faith as a key factor in their athletic success. Clearly, church life had permeated their hearts and minds. Football was their occupation; excellence their goal; but the development of their souls through worship was not discarded or put aside in the process. |
