Kanakuk/K-Life In Review: The End

Well, guys, as you probably know by now, this is Jonathan's last week at a job he's had for eight years. I'd like to dedicate the remainder of this week to his time with that job and all the neat things that have happened along the way! 

This Monday was Jonathan's final club meeting with K-Life. I usually am unable to attend, but Jonah and I made it out this Monday. 

 Jonathan did some extra things to celebrate the end of the school year. He grilled hot dogs for the kids and had some extra "hang-out" time for them. While they ate he played a video of all the videos of the year. After eating, he gathered everyone for some games. 

One of Jonathan's gifts is including others. He's great at drawing people (especially young people) in. Most of the kids students were enthusiastic about the game, but you know in a group this size, there is bound to be at least one reluctant person. He got them all in, and as far as I could tell they all had a great time.

 Jonah and I snapped this picture from the balcony above.

When we went back down the games were ending and Jonathan was about to get up in front of everyone. My plan was to hold Jonah in the back. Jonah had another plan...his plan was to be Jonathan's shadow. (which is where the picture of him on Jonathan's shoulder comes in) Follow this through with me.....1) Jonah on Jonathan's shoulders...2) very very cute....3) audience laughs....4) Jonah laughs....repeat 2-4.

So, Jonah and I headed out the door and came home and eliminated the distraction.

 

 

Jonathan has been going through Matthew chapters 5, 6, & 7 this semester, teaching them from the Sermon on the Mount. His goal for club was to have those chapters memorized and have the kids sit out on a grassy hill where he would give the Sermon on the Mount. With all that is going on, he was only able to memorize one of those chapters (but still amazing, right! and entire chapter of the Bible memorized in a day) And the weather was unseasonably warm, so they were gathered inside.

We still do not know exactly what the future holds. We just received the last paycheck. Hopefully we know where the next one is coming from before this one runs out. 

We do know that God is faithful to provide. We simply have to be faithful (trusting him) and obedient (to do the job He's got in store). This is sometimes easier said than done. We are trying not to worry or become stressed.
