Six area churches of various denominations (Savoy UMC, Glory Center, Living Hope, First Christian, Stone Creek and Homer UMC) came together for prayer, worship, praise and fellowhip this morning. This group was formed after a Yada Yada conference at Savoy UMC and is loosely modeled after the prayer group in the Yada Yada book series by Neta Jackson. (These books are available in our church library.) The group meets monthly at various churches in Champaign County and is open to all women for prayer, nurturing and fellowship. The next meeting of the Champaign County Yada Yada Prayer Group will be decided and announced soon.

KIC Earth Day Outing
The Kids In Christ (KIC) celebrated Earth Day with an outing to Homer Lake. Stacey Clementz, director of environmental education, greeted the group and explained some of the work that Champaign County Forest Preserve does at Homer Lake. Then, before we took off on a hike, she supplied each student with a plastic bag and gloves so that they could help out by picking up trash and other potentially harmful items along the trails. The kids had a great time discovering animal tracks, identifying various kinds of plants and fishing trash out of the lake. Half the fun was seeing how close they could get to the lake without getting wet. We all had a great time. Many thanks to Stacey for sharing her wealth of knowledge and making our Earth Day outing so much fun.
