With an amazing amount of energy, singing, and excitement, the Freedom School opened today. Click here to see photos of the morning
Parents and children were greeted by cheering and clapping Servant Leaders in the parking lot. What a great way to start the day!
Freedom School provides a full morning of activities and fun. Children have breakfast from 8:00-8:30 and then gather together for Harambe (Swahili for working together in unity), a time of singing, sharing, celebrating and story time. Contina Lundy was today’s “guest reader” and shared the story, Click Clack, Moo: Cows That Type by Doreen Cronin.

FPCG Member Spotlight
If you are a long time member of First Church you will remember seeing DJ as a small child walking into church holding the hand of his godmother, Contina Lundy.
DJ lives with his mother, Terry, across the street from the Lundy’s. He tells me they are his second family.
Now we see DJ as a young man of 17 years, enjoying his life and making plans for his future. We will always know him by his warm and engaging smile.
DJ attends Sunday School and is active in the youth group and is also a 7 year member of the FPCG drill team and drum corps that is now known as Germantown Exclusive. He plays the snare drum and has taught this skill to others.

The Children’s Defense Fund (CDF) Freedom School is a child centered program that focuses on children’s ability to make a difference. It motivates children to excel, strengthens children’s feelings of self worth and lets children know that they are loved and valued by caring adults and it is coming to Germantown.
Replacing the 20+ years of Summer Day Camp, we are proud to launch this new program that will operate seven weeks June 28 through August 13, 2010!
Our summer program will enable participants to experience over eighty hours of focused activities around reading and comprehension and collect six books for their personal library.
