The KOF Bulletin Board, Aug/Sept ‘09
Hello everyone! We hope you had a great time this summer. We definitely did! It’s been a summer full of busyness, fun, and the presence of God.
We took the month of July off due to the busyness of the KOF contributors’ schedules, so this is the August/September issue. We’ve woven many themes together in our various writing this month. The main subjects include butterflies, new life, and metamorphosis. They are some very fun topics, and we all enjoyed putting our articles together.
There are some exciting articles we’ve featured that I’d like to highlight. First of all, for some more information about one of our main themes, check out Focus on God’s Creation: Monarch Butterflies. Alyssa has written a touching short story that really emphasizes the spiritual aspect that we are focusing on this issue. A poem by Jocelberry is a poignant reminder of the depth of God’s love for us. In addition, the Shining Stars article has returned, and this time Ashley’s writing about the Jonas Brothers. Last but not least, Catey asked Bluejane some questions about herself in a light-hearted interview that I’m sure you will enjoy.
One of the biggest things that happened this summer was the launching of Ignition, an affiliate of Kids of Faith and something all of the KOF contributors had a part in. We covered what it is about and the purpose of it more in depth last issue. The first annual Ignition challenge was a great success. While we have no idea how many people were impacted, the biggest hearts that were affected were our own. I personally came away from the experience with a new, greater understanding of who God is, how holy he is, and how great his love is for us. It was amazing. Because of what Catey, Jocelberry, and I experienced over the month of June, we decided to continue Ignition in a different form. So, the Ignition site is now updated somewhat regularly with devotions and other fun stuff on how you can continue to grow closer to God. If you’d like to check it out, here’s the link: www.ignitionchallenge.wordpress.com.
We’re also featuring another poll this issue, so if you wouldn’t mind offering your opinion, we’d love to hear your thoughts.
Our next issue will be coming out sometime in October or November, and we’re really excited since it marks the third year since Kids of Faith has started. God has done so much, and exceeded anything we could have imagined or hoped for. He is so good.
See you in a little while!
Because of HIM,
