International Night FUN!






Tonight was our 2nd Annual International Night for Mission 659 Kids! In my mind the plans started about 2 weeks ago when I visioned a huge plane made of chairs and a white roll of plastic tablecloth. Seriously, I spent hours thinking of how to make it work...how many chairs, what about boarding passes, oh, an inflight safety video..the ideas kept coming. Finally the week arrived and I could not get the image from my head into reality. So, Thursday night I arrived at church and started building the plane. It came together pretty quick! That's the first picture. What you can't see is that off the sides are two large wings of the plane. Everyone who came to International Night recieved a boarding pass with a seat assignment and a Passport to collect stamps from every country and take notes about cool things they learned!

Katy and Kirsten decided on the country of Iceland. Together we learned and talked about Iceland and with help from Sammy - we made a project board about Iceland - Land of Fire and Ice!

At the end of the night, we hand out participation certificates to all the students and pray for each country represented. It was a really great night!
