New tricks at dv8!

March 18, 2013  dv8 has learned some new tricks! After mastering our motto verse, John 14:6 we have added the 7 commands that Jesus gives his followers...and we can recite them all WITH hand motions! Each week is full of surprises... from having an exhilarating night of 80 kids or a quiet intimate group of 30! We have had new fun teachers step up to the task including one of our Teen Volunteers and groups from other churches volunteer to serve the evening with us! We have played with pipe cleaners and made cool gifts to give to our friends or teachers. Each night is full of surprises and treasured gifts that God either tucks away in hard to find places or displays right out in the open for all to see! Either way, God continues to fill our cup...sometimes it even runneth over! 

We are always looking for volunteers...so contact us and come check it out! Every Wednesday 6-7:30pm at the McKinney Housing Authority Activity Center! 

May God continue to grow in their hearts!!
Pipe Cleaner Creativity!! Love these guys!
A night blessed by 80 or more!!
