Behold Your King is Coming!
March 10,2013 we taught the children about Jesus' triumphant entry into Bethlehem. He rode in on a donkey as they waved palm leaves shouting Hosanna. This was a fulfillment of a prophecy in the Old Testament which stated "Behold your king is coming riding on a donkey." As a craft for this week, we painted the shells of eggs. Believe it or not, no eggs were broken during the painting process. Hope you like the outcome as much as we did.

Children's Church
For the past two weeks of Children's Church, we have been having such a great time that I thought I thought I should share it with you. The first week, Jesus walked on water and helped Peter to also. The memory verse was Luke 10:27 “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”
This is some of our creations.
The second week, Jesus had his feet washed with tears & perfume, then dried with the woman's hair. The memory verse was Ephesians 4:32 "Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you." Here is last week's creations.

Rough Time
I apologize for not posting. As the last post stated little Ava had just arrived and my family ...was headed for a rollercoaster. Our little miracle fought with all her strength. She became known as the "spunky" one. Unfortunately, Ava's little body couldn't fight anymore. The butterfly background is for Ava as her mother would say "fly high butterfly."
Ava Margaret Hall born December 5, 2012 went to be with Jesus
on January 26, 2013 at Vanderbilt Children’s Medical Center. She was a very
special baby girl and has touched the lives of so many in such a short time. She
was preceded in death by Papaw Eddie Hall, great grandparents, Margaret and
Charlie Andrews, Keith Jessie, Charlie and Kate Hall and Barbara and Clifton
Bryant. She is survived by and will forever be missed by her parents Charlie and
Brittany Hall; three brothers Bryson, Braydon, and Covan all of the home;
grandparents Ann Hall of Dandridge, Victoria Jessie of Newport; Kermit and
Imogene Andrews, Newport; great grandparents Betty Jessie of Kodak and also
several other aunts, uncles, cousins and friends that loved her very much.

I Believe in Miracles!
Our Savior is born of a virgin in a lowly stable surrounded by animals. He is the King of Kings yet is born in such a humble way. He came and does save us. If that isn't a miracle I don't know what is.
Luke 2 Now in
those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus, that a census be taken of
all the inhabited earth. 2 This was the first census taken while
Quirinius was governor of Syria. 3 And everyone was on his way to
register for the census, each to his own city. 4 Joseph also went up
from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David which
is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David, 5 in
order to register along with Mary, who was engaged to him, and was with child. 6
While they were there, the days were completed for her to give birth. 7
And she gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths,
and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.8 In
the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and
keeping watch over their flock by night. 9 And an angel of the Lord
suddenly stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and
they were terribly frightened. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do
not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for
all the people; 11 for today in the city of David there has been
born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 This will be
a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” 13
And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly
host praising God and saying,14 “Glory to God in the highest, And on
earth peace among men with whom He is pleased.”15 When the angels
had gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds began saying to one
another, “Let us go straight to Bethlehem then, and see this thing that has
happened which the Lord has made known to us.” 16 So they came in a
hurry and found their way to Mary and Joseph, and the baby as He lay in the
manger. 17 When they had seen this, they made known the statement
which had been told them about this Child. 18 And all who heard it
wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds. 19 But
Mary treasured all these things, pondering them in her heart. 20 The
shepherds went back, glorifying and praising God for all that they had heard
and seen, just as had been told them.

December 7th
Today is December 7th, I would like to remember those who lost their live at Pearl Harbor.
The first wave attacked military airfields of Ford Island. At 08:30, a second wave of 170 Japanese aircraft, mostly torpedo bombers, attacked the fleet anchored in Pearl Harbor. The battleship Arizona was hit with an armor-piercing bomb which penetrated the forward ammunition compartment, blowing the ship apart and sinking it within seconds. It was one of eight US battleships at the dock, five of which were sunk and the remaining three were badly damaged. Overall, 9 ships of the U.S. fleet were sunk and 21 ships were severely damaged. 3 of the 21 would be irreparable. The overall death toll reached 2,402. (info per Wikipedia)

The Lord Giveth
Ava Margaret Hall
Today, We welcomed into the world Ava Hall. She weigh 6 lbs. 10 oz. She is doing well under ther circumstances. Ava has been born with a heart condition known as HLHS. My understanding is she doesn't have a left ventricle in her heart. Ava is being flown to Vanderbilt tonight and will undergo surgery early next week. As you can see in the picture above, she doesn't seem to have a care in the world. The doctors are really happy about how stable she is. Please keep her in your prayers.
Update
Ava will have surgery on Monday. She is doing extremely well. The doctors are Vanderbilt's Children's Hospital are very pleased with her progress. Please keep her and the family in her prayers. We know God is hearing all of them.
