Cre-Cri (Creciendo en Cristo or Growing in Christ)
Some of you might remember the name of our Children's Program called, Cre-Cri. It stands for Growing in Christ. This is what we do when there is Bible Institute for the adults on Sunday mornings. We have one service on Sundays where Sam teaches the adults and the kids have what most would call Sunday School. But when we have Bible Institute we use the time with the kids to teach them Godly Character Qualities. This past semester we've been working hard on Obedience--Submitting to your authority with a happy spirit. I used the teens as my helpers. Natalie taught the Bible story each week. I had three other teen girls help with the definition and memory verses. Plus we had the children learn the books of the Old Testament. If they memorized them in order they got to pick a Beanie Baby from the Treasure Chest at the end of the semester. We also used mini-Beanie Babies as a reward each week for good behavior. It was such a joy to see the kids grow in the area of Obedience. The kids also worked hard on the Obedience song from Patch the Pirate. Last Sunday we got to show the church all that we learned.

Hello friends -to-be!
You know of Calvary Baptist Church, in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, but you probably
don't remember me. :) I did speak with you and played the piano that Sunday
night, but at any rate I wanted to write you a bit of encouragement. :)
We are thankful for the work the Lord is doing in your lives. And we are
thankful for your willingness and tenderness to the Gospel to be on the
mission field.
During this month of counting blessings (which should be all the time), we
want you to know we consider ourselves blessed to know folks like you are
willing to serve on the front lines for Christ and His precious name.
Love and blessings,
Wyman and Nancy Martin :) :)
