From October 2010 through October 2011, our first year with Kidology to Go was an amazing experience. I hope you enjoy the highlights in the video!

Kevin Shutterbug and the interview

Kevin shares a little of his frustration at being ignored during our recent television interview on WIFR in Rockford, Illinois. We thought he was going to talk about this great campground we were at in Indiana, but he could not get over himself!

Another success in Mattoon

We had another wonderful time at the most recent Kidology to Go in Mattoon, Illinois. Our host church was First United Methodist of Mattoon. This church has quite a history in the area and the building is over 100 years old. The church building is made of stone and looks amazing! Blake was excited to see the old building that looks like a castle because of its unique architecture.

Youth and Children’s Ministry Director Brad Waggoner was a gracious host and several members of his team were on hand to take part in the day’s training. Two other churches sent volunteers as well and we had a good atmosphere in the place. My wife taught her seminar on Engaging a generation in worship for the first time and it went quite well. We also split groups for the first time and offered an elective, so Patsy and I both taught workshops at the same time.

We stayed at one of the volunteers homes where we plugged in Howard our RV and had a couple of fantastic meals and the boys played board games and the Knex and played on their swing set. We thank all those who helped make this Kidology to Go a big success!

Eager learners gathered 30 minutes before start time!
