Reply to "Ways to do the "OPENING" or "GATHERING before the Workshops"

The beginning 15 minutes, one finds all the K-5th grade children at "Sunday Morning Live". we begin with Steven Curtis Chapman's the Great Adventure Song, since that this the name of our Sunday School Program. This song and others are lead by a very energetic Dance instructor who creates actions. The words are on a power-point so anyone can join in singing and the music is played through an audio system that fills the entire room. We are in a large community room, that duals for adult Sunday School, we have an area set up like a campsite for the children & their adventure guides to join around. In using this room, the adults can also observe and join with the children. We use this time for saying our memory verse and taking our offering for our Mission project. At the beginning of each rotation, a skit is performed by pastor,some adults and older youth, which is also enjoyed by the adult Sunday School Class that begins after our opening. After the opening the children are led by their adventure guides to their morning workshop. We even have a few parents that join with their children during the opening time, which is a great opportunity for them to show their children that what they are doing is important. [The skits give Pastor a chance to connect & relate to the children which he loves doing, but finds minimal time on Sunday morning, and he even fills in when our leader needs to be gone.]
