It’s Official: The First Kidology to Go!

Friday, August 20th, 2010

We are so thrilled to announce we have officially scheduled the first Kidology to Go!

Locust Grove Free Will Baptist Church in Locust Grove, Oklahoma will be the host church for the Kidology to Go seminar on Saturday, November 6th, 2010.

Our host, Children’s Pastor Jacob Myers, noted, “our team is super excited about Kidology to Go coming to our church!”

Locust Grove is near Tulsa, Oklahoma and is a great town like so many in mid-America. It reminds me of the small town I am currently living in. We encourage anyone near eastern Oklahoma, northwestern Arkansas or southwestern Missouri to consider coming to this Kidology to Go.

We are planning lots of fun and it will also be a great opportunity to network with other children’s pastors and volunteers. Bring along some others from your church!

Online Registration is now available. We have other Kidology to Go seminars with additional host churches we are close to announcing as well.

What do the dots mean?

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

Now that its been a month since launching Kidology to Go, I can address a recurring question that has been coming up from interested host churches and potential attendees. What are those little dots on each state? Do they represent a certain city or a scheduled event? The short answer is not yet! They don’t represent a certain city or church, but rather they represent where we plan to be on our family’s journey across North America in the next two and half years! At this moment, we have just one  Kidology to Go booked, which we will announce soon! (We are still getting the final date nailed down.)

You see, traveling all around the North American continent in an RV is a family dream that God has helped us to realize!

We are super excited about seeing tons of sights while serving God in new and unique ways, growing closer to Him and each other as we do. We are praying for many different ministry doors to open on this journey in addition to the Kidology to Go events, as we look for ways we can share God’s love with different people we meet a long the way.

When Karl Bastian heard about this dream and presented this opportunity, we suddenly had the perfect way to both see this dream come true as well as do something else we loved – equip and encourage children’s workers! So we planned out a route across America and Canada of when and where we wanted to go, seeking God and praying through the process. It was a perfect partnership because we already love providing quality, affordable training for local churches, and with Kidology to Go, the host church doesn’t have to pay for lodging or transportation!

Hope this clears up the mystery of the dots! They represent the states we will be in – if a dot is near you – we’d love to book a Kidology to Go training event at YOUR CHURCH!
