Safari Animal Pastors

by Paul Gilbert

The summer is in full swing, and so is ministry around here at Four Oaks.
 
Recently, in honor of the kick off of our Safari Sundays in kids ministries, I asked all of our future spiritual leaders of tomorrow to do something "fun": to draw a picture of a pastor in the shape of their favorite safari animal.
 
We had many many entries, but here are a few that really distinguish themselves....

"I'm Pastor Paul and I'm a BALD Eagle" by Kara Middleton

"Pastor Paul as a Monkey" by Kaylah Feldman

"I am Pastor Paunda" (with New Coke)

"Pastor of the Forest"

As you are marveling at the uncanny likeness between these jungle creatures and yours truly, remember to pray for our 4Oaks Kids ministry this summer. In addition to Safari Sundays, there is Salt and Light camp and VBS on the horizon.
 
Pray that God would do a great work of grace the lives of our kids. Pray for our children staff and volunteers. And remember to thank our children's ministry team members investing themselves in our little ones. 
 
Pray for fruit and grace this summer.
