Riverbanks Zoo has so much to offer families and groups. This Saturday we took our 2nd-6th grade Juniors, and for many it was a first time. I wish you could have seen some of their faces as they gazed at the giraffes, lions, zebras, penguins, monkeys, kangaroos, lemurs, and dozens of other animals. We had twenty-five kids and eight adults (including Josh & I) meet at the church at 9:30 that morning. We arrived at the zoo around 11:30. Then enjoyed a picnic lunch that several parents and church families helped provide. Bro. Josh then divided us into four groups with each having two leaders.

It was such a fun trip! We are so thankful to everyone who had a part in it. To those who provided our lunches and snacks, sponsored a child, drove a vehicle, and came with us we say "THANK YOU!!!!!" May God bless you.

Also, I would like to add more pictures of the zoo trip; so if you took any pictures, please, send them to me via email or at church.
