Roller Skating

After a LOOOOONG week of Jackson being sick and parent teacher conferences, I got to stay home with the kids on Friday.  We decided to take off in the afternoon and go to the Cross Creek roller skating party.  Brady has been wanting to try roller skating for awhile now and I thought this would be a perfect time to do it!
Brady was so excited and I was happy to see my friend Shelly and her daughter Lexi there.  Shelly and Lexi were a huge help with both boys!!

Brady had so much fun skating around the rink with Shelly.  Jackson was done after a couple times around and he only wanted mom so Shelly spent a lot of time skating with Brady and she has some great stories to tell.  He jumped up at one point and said, "Look, no wheels!"

Jackson skated for a little bit and then he wanted to be held....this was NOT allowed.  I got reprimanded for holding him.  OOPS :)

Skating with my boys....thanks also to Shelly for being my photographer :)

I am so glad to have this wonderful woman as my friend!!  She is AMAZING :)

Panama Trip

Dear Family and Friends,


I am excited to share with you about an opportunity that I have to serve God in a way unlike anything else that I have ever done.

I have the opportunity to be a part of a short-term missions trip to Panama City, Panama, during the first week of April. We will be leaving on April 3 and flying to Panama City where we will be serving.

I am excited to go on this trip not just to help others, but also to grow personally in my walk with Jesus. I feel that He has called me on this trip and I am amazed by how He has already provided for me in ways that I could never imagine. Shortly after deciding to go on this trip, I had a very good friend of mine express an interest in going with me. How amazing that God provided a close friend to share in this experience with me and ease my mind in stepping out into the unknown! I am so eager to see what else He has in store for me during this week.

I would like to invite you to share in this experience with me through prayer. Please pray that His will is done on this trip and that, through our team, others will see the love that Christ has for them. Please pray that our team will be open to God’s Spirit working in us and through us. I am looking for two people who would be prayer partners for our team and pray specifically during the week for safe travels, safety and health of our team, and that we are productive in our work. If you are interested in this, please let me know so I can give you specific prayer requests and the dates we will be gone.

If you would like to participate financially you may, as each team member needs to raise $799 for the trip. While Brett and I are planning to fund the trip personally, we want to allow those who desire to give the opportunity to do so. You may give online through the KCC website at http://kentwoodcommunitychurch.com/missionsfund designating your donation to my account for the Panama City mission trip. If you would prefer, checks can be made out to Kentwood Community Church.

Thank you for thinking about partnering with me in this trip. It would mean a lot to me to know that you are praying for our team as we travel and work in Panama City. I know that it will make a difference in the work that we do while we are there.

In His Service,

Jenn Kidd
