My Caravan Scouts


Alex and Nikki had their closing ceremony for Caravans last night.
Caravans is a Nazarene scout program that teaches kids about being good citizens, having good character, learning important life skills and weaves teaching about God into all of it. My kids love all the fun, creative things they learn and do....Duane and I love it, because while learning about life they are also being taught more about Jesus...and that is a very good thing!

Alex's class, the Pathfinders, was led by Brian and Nicole Bohner. I must say, they did an amazing job!! Brian is just a big kid himself...and Alex thought he was the greatest!

Nikki's class, the Hunters, was led by Karl and Dena Abel. Karl and Dena love children, and it shows...big time!! Nikki couldn't wait to get to Caravans every week!

Alex received the Faithful Medal for only missing once, and Nikki received a medal for Perfect Attendance (you would have thought that she had won the Olympics!).

Duane and I want to say a HUGE "thank you" to all of the people who invest in the lives of our children through this program. We are so grateful for you!!Nikki and Levi Tilford

That is so neat. I think it is awesome to see kids having FUN at church activities and learning about Jesus. Great kids there, even if he holds the Bible upside down, he was looking at it.
