KidMin leaders.
(cue the Rocky theme song…)
We’re not glorified babysitters.
We’re not mere coloring consultants.
We’re leaders.
And pretty good ones, too.
(…Rocky theme fade out…)
Serving in KidMin is a high calling. Deep down, we know that.
But in our weaker moments, KidMin leaders tend to ask ourselves some pretty great questions. Questions that reveal real frustrations and honest musings.
Here are few that might bring a smirk to your face:
- Does Kool Aid wash off of linoleum?
- Mix the Skittles and the M&M’s? Are you crazy?!?
- Billy won’t really eat that, will he?
- Who’s cleaning that up?
- Who hid the Goldfish crackers?
- Why, why, why do we motivate with sugar?
- Am I the only person on for nursery this week? (facepalm)
- Stop. Tonight is parents’ night?
- Who thought finger-painting in the lobby was a good idea?
- They won’t notice if I sneak a few M&M’s, will they?
- Why don’t they make coloring pages for the book of Revelation?
- Did the pastor really say it was “wrong” to pogo stick into the sanctuary?
- Anyone else notice that the communion plates look remarkably like hubcaps?
- Baptismal = wading pool?
- That whole “Sons of Thunder” thing. Is that applicable to these kids?
- Do I smell like crayons all week? Ewww…
- So the LEGO Bible is really a thing? (Trust us. Google it.)
- You’re telling me that 12 junior high boys can eat 12 pizzas?
- Is it wrong to wear earplugs during game time?
- Wait. What’s that smell? Nevermind.
- …Don’t we have the coolest jobs in the world? 🙂
Thanks for all you do! We wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for your sacrifice, service, and love for kids.
Have a great night!
