Sunrise Summer Program

During their summer program, Sunrise (a worship center of Castleton UMC) children focused on mission. The summer grant provided by Metro Ministries gave them the opportunity to hire staff that focused on faith building with their children this summer. They were asked to bring school supplies for backpacks to be given to families in need. They made crafts to give to a local nursing care facility. As I visited the classrooms the children were getting ready to have fruit on toothpicks and ready to go outside for play. Our children are here for us to teach. Making Disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world is the United Methodist Church mission statement.
