God's Love Is Worth Sharing


On the final day of our Kids in the Kingdom Week, the theme was Go'ds Love Is Worth Sharing.


The kids try picking up 80 pounds of dirt as a group to get a feel for the pack weight carried by a typical Roman soldier, then Geoff picks it up himself, showing that it is possible, if difficult.

God's Love Saves Us


On Day Four of our Kids in the Kingdom Week, the theme was God's Love Save Us.


Geoff teaches the kids how a bucket brigade could save the city in case of fire.



A thief is caught stealing bread at snacktime. Then the shopkeeper gave him the money to buy the bread from her, so that he would not have to be punished for his crime.

God's Love Changes Us


Now on day two of our Kids in the Kingdom Week devoted to the Courageous Christians in the Underground Church in Rome in the time of Saint Paul, our theme is God's Love Changes us.

Enjoy these photos. The adult and teen helpers are having fun alongside the kids as we enjoy experiencing a week in first century Rome.





In a drama during snacktime, the Roman Senator Atticus (at left) frees his slave Tullius.
