Hi Karl,

I joined Kidology about 5 months ago at Jim Wideman's recommendation.

I have never met you but I just want to say that your team is doing a great job with Kidology. I have been really blessed by the fellowship with like-minded people on this site. It's kind like a attending a conference without the expense of traveling.

Of course talk is cheap, so I want to be the first one to sign up to be a Kidology Champion in 2008 and "sponsor a day" (I totally understnd the expenses it takes to run a ministy. It is always alot more than people think it is.)

Please give your team a big "Thank You" for creating this site.

Thanks again,
Mark

I am thankful for Kidology, and like Mark want to put my money where my mouth is. The best investment you can make is in in stuff that helps you grow. Thanks for allowing me to be a part of this wonderful tool.

I will be able to help by Feb at the latest. I consider kidology one of the most valuable assets out there for CP's and I agree with Mark that it's like being at a 365 day conference.

Thank you so much Karl!

Chris

Well, Week One is over, and we are TEN toward our goal. Keep in mind, we got seven of these in December so to reach our goal we will really need a lot of people to step up and help.

Thank you so much for your encouraging words, support, and most of all PRAYER - we really need the help right now.

As we head into week two we have 14 Champion Donors. One is a $25 a month commitment, which is perfectly fine!

Thanks for your prayer for Kidology's COUNTDOWN to 365!

God is good!!! I've spent alot of ministry $$$ lately and was actually going to wait until the end of the month to approach my SP about donating.

I spoke to him often about the site and yesterday in our weekly meeting I mentioned an idea I got from someone here and he asked me if I paid for my subsciption and I said yes. He said we'll we want to take care of that. I said funny thing you mention that because I wanted to see if you would consider covering the champion donation and I'll renew my subscription in FEB. He said no we want to do that and sow into you and the children's ministry.

Since I was on a roll Brother Jim he happily agreed to taking care of the club membership for me as well. Praise God!!! As much as I love you BJ I was going to offer the $$$ I was going to personally use to join th club next month to kidology but this was an Issac kinda thing haha.

What a great time in history to be in children's ministry!!!

I am glad to have the opportunity to support Kidology in this way. Kidology was one of the very first resources I turned to when I began working in children's ministry. I find the information to be incredible when you're just beginning and even when you're a seasoned worker.

Thank you to the whole kidology team!

I just took the opportunity this week to become a "Kidology Champion". I am not a Children's Pastor or Director, I'm a volunteer. I have been teaching since October 1991. I can honestly say "Kidology" is one of the best sites out there today. So many times I have found in the "children's ministry" arena most training materials/events are little more then infomericals for the vendor's product. That is not the case here. I would like to encourage any other full time "volunteers" to please consider becoming a Champion. I'm positive God will take our donations and do more with them then we can ever imagine.
To God be the Glory! In Him, Ms. Marty McCutcheon

Just wanted to give a little update. So far we have 38 Kidology Champion Donors and over 300 prayer supporters who have signed up for the Kidology Champions Prayer Supporters e-mail list.

We are praying for God to raise up 365 donors to sponsor a day of Kidology with a gift of only $99 a YEAR. Please pray that God would continue to move people to support our ministry, it is such a blessing when these donations come in.

THANK YOU!
