Dana Sutton has been directing KidVenture for us since our launch team days over a year ago. When we started, there were about 25 children - all kids of launch team people. Then, starting with our Grand Opening last August, the number of children in Kidventure has grown dramatically. Every week, there are about 100 children over there. And there are 62 adult volunteers that help out with that ministry on a weekly basis. It's clearly no longer a part time job for a mother of four children.
Dana has officially resigned from our staff, and yesterday in the service, we thanked her. I told our church and I reiterate that we would not be where we are without Dana and her leadership. I know lots of people share that belief. Her husband Jonathan has also helped us out in a big way. From security, to outreach, to creative stuff...you name it. Jonathan has a heart for ministry....He's a good dad and husband.
We're now on a search for a full time Children's or Family Pastor. If you know a sharp leader, let me know. We need someone to build on the foundation that Dana has laid down. So thank you Dana and Jonathan for all you've done, and I know God will continue to bless you guys.
Dana and her family have done an amazing job and I feel truly blessed to have been working under her direction.
