STAIRS CAUTION
This is a very important message to all parents to watch your children after the Service as they are playing up and down the stairs. As much as we love all our students, after the Service, it is the parents’ responsibility to supervise their own children. Please do not leave your children unattended.

One of the requirements in the Kids’ EE Program is that the students will share the Gospel
to the prisoners’ children at theAngel Tree Family Party which will be held at GII SJ from 12-2PM. For questions, please
