LOGOS 2007 - 2008

 

LOGOS is our mid-week ministry for young people in Kindergarten through 8th grade.  Meetings are on Wednesday evenings from October through March each year.  The goal of the ministry is to nurture a relationship with Jesus Christ and Christian relationships with peers and adult leaders.  This is accomplished through a four-part program that includes Bible Study, Worship Skills, Recreation, and a family-style dinner.  The program requires a commitment from each participating family to support the ministry financially and with their time and talents.  For more information call our church office at 630-668-5147.

The photo on the left was taken of the nursery during LOGOS.  The preschoolers had a great time decorating pumpkins for Halloween while their parents were involved in LOGOS activities with the older children (Kindergarten through 8th grade).

Below are photos of middle schoolers who do their Bible study in small groups.

Above and on the left, the middle schoolers find Bible study most helpful when it is done in small groups that are usually all girls or all boys.

Below are are the results from the scavenger hunt we did throughout the church neighborhoods to collect food for Christmas Sharing, held here at church in December 2007.

Above, we had a speaker from Wheaton Outreach come and speak to us about older folks.  Katie is experiencing what it might feel like to be "old" with some help from a few props.

These two photos were also taken during the dinner period at LOGOS.
These four photos were taken at the final LOGOS banquet on March 12, 2008.  Above is the Bubble Man, who entertained us.  Below on the left are Mary Kinsey and the parents of 8th graders who would be entering high school in the fall.  Pictured are Catherine Rowland, Diane Gordon, Mary Kinsey, Barb Matosian, Sher Kirschbaum, and Kathy Paradise.  On the right Jay and many of the girls helped lead a thank you song to all the adult volunteers.

Our thanks to Mary Kinsey for the photos and information!
