Missional Kids in the Sonlight Choir
Help your children to be “missional” too! We have a great Super Tuesdays program that you can bring your neighbors, friends from school, newcomers to town... But your kids may need a little help from you! It’s a fun, non-threatening evening for unchurched folks – fun choir from 5:15-6:00pm and then dinner for the whole family from 6-7:00pm. Kids – invite your friends to join Sonlight Choir (grades 1st-6th)!
 We have a great musical this year we think you will all love... "Pirates of the I don't Care-ibbean."
Jeff Smith's new children's musical, Pirates of the "I Don't Care"-ibbean, is sure to be a big hit especially if your kids love the hilarious "silly songs" from VeggieTales, the Pirates of the Caribbean Disney movies and Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: A VeggieTales Movie. The musical will reach not only kids, but everyone with a great message of the Gospel.
The story is set inside Pirate Park, home of the Plattsburg Pirates (not to be confused with the Pittsburgh Pirates, Jeff's favorite baseball team!). It is a pirate night at the stadium and families are in the bleachers dressed as pirates to support their woefully bad team.
Similar to Dorothy traveling back to the Land of Oz, the story starts with a dream sequence where a young fan named Andy gets hit in the head with a baseball and travels to a fantastical island in the Caribbean called Johnny Bay. As the story unfolds, you learn that the pirates don't remember anything about their past or how they came to Johnny Bay. All they know is that they are required to guard the captain's treasure from anyone who may want to steal it away.
Creator Jeff Smith wants kids to learn that, "You are not created to be on a deserted island, guarding someone else's treasure. Your real treasure is in heaven, not on earth. Avarice is a tool of the enemy to keep you from becoming all God created you to be on earth. In the story, Andy exposes the lies of the evil captain and helps the pirates assume their rightful place on the sea."
During a time when pirate movies are popular, this musical will connect with kids as well as adults and draw them in to something that is both fun and spiritually educational.
Join us for the CHBC Sonlight Choir presentation on Saturday, April 26 at 7 PM. Bring your friends!
