December Update

"Merry (early) Christmas! As we come into the Christmas season, it's so amazing to think of Jesus as a tiny baby or little toddler - so perfect and yet so human. As we watch over and play with the children in our care, they serve as a reminder of Christ's sacrifice.

Our Christmas Eve service will be a time of reflection and worship, for adults and children. Childcare will be needed for children aged 0 to 4. We will be telling the Christmas story in each of the rooms, as well as doing a Christmas craft and having snacks. If you are interested in helping out, please email Kristen at kbylenga@shaw.ca, or call her at 744-3703."

Childcare this fall has been amazing, thanks to the faithful support of our child caretakers! After a fantastic open house, several more people signed up to help on Sunday mornings. On top of that, people who have been serving continuously in the childcare area for several years can still be seen on a Sunday morning, playing with the kids and showing them God's love. Thanks to all of you who serve so faithfully!

One great child caretaker on our team is Amanda MacDonald. Amanda shows up EVERY Sunday. What's amazing about Amanda is that she not only shows up, but she loves playing with the kids and they love her. Thanks Amanda, your servant heart is so appreciated and encouraging to those around you."

The new face you see on Sunday mornings in the childcare areas is Kristen Bylenga. Kristen and her husband, Eric, have been members at Lambrick for a year. While they have no kids of their own (yet!), they both enjoy hanging out in the various childcare rooms at Lambrick on Sunday mornings. Kristen also works full time at an engineering firm as an Administrative Assistant, and enjoys playing piano and reading in her spare time.

If you are interested in helping out with childcare, you can contact Kristen by phone at 744-3703, or by email at kbylenga@shaw.ca
