Sabbath, September 10th, 2016 ~ at Orchard City SDA Church

It was very nice to walk into the church and hear such beautiful music being made by the trombone, voices, and the piano. Thank you to Beverly and Diane for the leading in Song Service... and to Dave W. for playing the trombone, and to all the people who came out and joined their voices in hymn singing.

The younger classes seemed to really enjoy this great weather and the interesting things their teachers are telling them.

Alex share insights into the Bible lesson of the week.
Teacher Loretta was telling the children about penguins and how they carry their eggs to keep them warm.
So the children were practicing.
Learning about penguins this Sabbath.
Not sure if that is a real penguin egg!?!??!?
He knows what to do with it though.
The Outdoor Class is ready for their boat explore around the pond.
Off they go... looking for turtles, ducks, and birds.
Ask them sometime what they saw on their boat ride.
Doug is watching the children after they had their Bible lesson.
Beverly shares the children's story this weekend. It was about porcupines.
Dave sings and plays a special piece of music.
