BIBLE COMPUTER LAB

For quite some time, we've known that every generation is a new challenge to the Church and its teaching methods. Currently we're in the process of updating our learning center that our 2nd-6th graders use. The plan is to incorporate teaching with computers as we set up a Bible Computer Lab. The objective is to improve Bible literacy.

We've already purchased and are reviewing some of the new interactive Christian CD-ROMs. Programs like "Pathways Through Jerusalem" are packed full of historical, scriptural and archaeological information very creatively presented. There are also interactive, kid-friendly CDs about the Life of Moses, David, Jesus, and Paul that are full of Biblical content and excitement.

Thank-you to all who have donated their old computers to be used for our children. There will always be an ongoing need for more PC's in the learning Center - especially Pentiums because they will be able to run the software better.

Right now, we are looking for someone with the technical knowledge and willingness to help us sort through the computers and set them up in the Learning Center for our children. If you can help us out, please see Ted Edwards or Carolyn Harrell.

It is so nice to finally have our Family Life Center completed. Lots of activities are already taking place from week-to-week in the FLC and the calendar year is filling up fast with FLC reservations. Our prayer is (and always has been) that if God would bless us with such a facility that we would use it for His glory to bring people closer to Him … and that is exactly what we're doing!

From an educational perspective there are many activities coming up in the near future. Please mark these dates on your calendar and plan now to take part in them. I'm sure you'll be encouraged.

See you in Bible Class this week!
