S.H.I.N.E.
Family Fall Festival
On Sunday, Oct. 26, kids of all shapes and sizes dressed as princesses,
cowboys and Superheroes will converge on EUM Worship Center for
S.H.I.N.E., a community wide alternative to traditional Trick or
Treat. S.H.I.N.E. is short for Share His Incredible News
Everywhere and is hosted by Children’s Ministry at EUM Church.
It’s a great way for kids and families from all over Darke County and
beyond to participate in a safe, secure event that not only offers the
fun, costumes and candy of a traditional Trick or Treat, but also
conveys a great message of faith. This year’s theme will be
“Animals Of The Bible.”
The area surrounding the Worship Center will be transformed into a fall
festival including a storytelling arena where kids and their parents
will move through twelve different stations. Each station
will tell stories of animals and their impact in the Bible. The
kids will be given candy that represents the story just told. By
the time they have moved through all stations, each child will not only
have collected lots of candy, but more importantly, learn a little more
about God’s word.
EUM will be expanding their festival this year to include more games,
activities and inflatables. There will also be the very popular hayride
to the pumpkin patch where every child will pick a pumpkin to decorate.
(Weather permitting).
We are very excited to announce our inside entertainment on stage in
the Worship Center. This year’s main act will be nationally known
ventriloquist David Crone from “I’m No Dummy Productions.” He has
entertained groups all over the country and spreads laughter faster
than the common cold. His performance times are 5:15 & 6:15
pm. Miss Julie from the Greenville Public Library will be doing
storytelling and the EUM Youth Band will be performing, as
well. This is a line up you will not want to miss.
The entire community is invited and welcomed. If you have
children ages newborn through grade 6, please come and enjoy a free
evening of family fun on October 26 at the Worship Center on the corner
of Sater and Sebring Warner in Greenville, Ohio. The festival
will open at 4:00 pm with SHINE story stations running from 5:00 – 7:00
pm. We will also have free hot chocolate, hot dogs and popcorn
available and a chance to win some great door prizes. In the
event of rain, S.H.I.N.E. will be moved inside to the Sanctuary.
