	Our Children in Action class assembled four medical kits with the help of our WMU ladies. The kits included items such as cotton balls, hand soap, band-aids, Q-Tips, chap stick, etc. We then delivered them to sick or shut-in members of our church. This was a great blessing not only to the families we ministered to but also to us. It was a great, great day!!!!

	I am from Amity Baptist Church in Woodland Mississippi. This is our first year doing GA's and our group is kind of small. We have families in our church whose elderly mothers have alzheimers. These ladies need constant, round the clock care. We often remember those that are ill , but forget those who are there behind the scene doing all the work. So my GA girls and I fixed up heart shaped bowls filled w/ encouraging goodies -- like bookmarks w/ scriptures, cards, and candy. We surprised them all during church service on Sunday, February 15. Bro. Scott let us have some time before preaching to acknowledge those six people who have done so much, but never get recognized. The girls had just as much fun as I did surprising these unsuspecting church members!

	Our GA’s and RA’s went to the Stewpot of Jackson for the National Children’s Ministry Day. We served over 150 meals to the needy. The children each had a table that they were responsible for waiting on. Then they helped in the clean up. We left there and grabbed some lunch then headed over to the Mississippi coliseum and Equine Center to hand out trail mix, witnessing tracts geared toward cowboys and we even had purchased 19 cowboy edition Bibles and ran out of them almost immediately. The kids loved seeing all the livestock and the rugged Cowboys. This made a great impact since they had just studied about Cowboy ministry in RA’s and GA’s in January. We also made a stop at the MS Baptist Convention Board Building to see the Memorial to the Missing Children that have been aborted since abortion was legalized. We ended out day with some ice cream and a little free time at a local park (Pictured above) and then on to see the movie “Hotel for Dogs”. It was truly an exciting day for us all.

	I too forgot to say that our group was from Highland Baptist Church Crystal Springs and I also have pictures if I can figure out how to make it work. Thanks

	Our GAs, RAs and CIAs came together and rotated into different sites. We had a speaker talk about having a spiritual heart, YMCA came and talked about having a healthy heart, children made joke books to put into hospital waiting rooms, and each child collected pledges for Samaritian Purses's Heart Fund and we held a jump-a-thon on this day for this event. We concluded with a healthy mystery lunch.

	The children of Central Baptist Church of Brookhaven, MS observed Children's Ministry Day on Sunday, February 15th. Boys and girls, ages preschool through 6th grade, presented a music program during the worhsip hour, served as ushers during the regular offering time and the special offering time at the end of the morning worship service. After a pizza lunch the children went to Haven Hall Health Center to present a music program and host a Valentine Party for the residents. The children presented the residents cards and gift bags that they had made. The children truly demonstrated the meaning of the scripture: "Dear chilren don't just talk about love. Put your love into action. The it will truly be love" 1 JOhn 3:1 (NIrV).

	My GA decorated heart tins and made Valentine cards. We took them to the nursing home residents and sang songs for them. They enjoyed it soooo much. We had a really good time.
