Thank you for attending the CWE Workshop. Over 400 came to First Baptist Moore

for the 2009 CWE Workshop, Hand in Hand Working Together. Thank you to all of

the presenters, exhibitors, sponsors, attendees, volunteers, and others who partici-

pated in this event. May the Lord continue to bless the work of your hands in

weekday education.

Like a map and a compass, the Bible shows the way to live according to God ˇs pur-

pose. In our hearts, we plan the course but God determines our steps. CWE prays

that as you map out the course for your center this year, set your goals, and make

the plans to accomplish them, that you will stay the course for the Lord. ˝He guards

the course of the just and protects the way of His faithful ones. ˛ Proverbs 2:8

Sheree Jordan ? CWE President

Early Education Ministry Director ? Skiatook, First

Great news for church weekday teachers and directors! This year at Heart of Child (April 16 & 17), we

have secured Ann Parnell from Tyler, Texas, to lead training conferences. Ann has dedicated her life to

teaching preschool children and serving as an advocate for teachers of Preschoolers. She has authored

How to Begin a Church Weekday Education Ministry, Parenting Tips, and articles too numerous to list.

You will enjoy her creative and humorous ways of presenting information pertinent to our work with

preschoolers. Ann brings many years of experience which results into practical ideas and instruction.

Over 170 conferences will be offered at this event as well as vendors in our exhibit hall and several key-

note speakers. Credit hours for attendance will be given at each conference. Plan now to attend by

registering online at www.bgco.org/heartofthechild . Seating is limited.

Check out our new online resource for free ideas each month at www.bgco.org/toptentips or email me

to add your email address to the list.
