SOZO Kids Graduation & SOZO Xtreme!

Our tradition at SOZO Kids is to present a Student Bible to each "graduating" 5th grader who is moving on to middle school.  Some of these kids we have known since they were 8 years old!  We had 10 graduated who were able to come be apart of the celebration lat Friday.






A few of the middle school leaders were there to share about fun things they can be a part of in the fall and had an opportunity to meet the graduates.

As part of the celebration, we had SOZO Xtreme perform their feats of strength while sharing principles about following God.  Kids were captivated and loved every minute of it...right down to being sprayed with soda after the guys smashed the cans on their heads!

We finished off the night with a yummy cake--a must for all graduation parties!

I cannot believe that they will enter the world of middle school in two short months. Praise God for our middle school team who are ready to take them in and continue to walk with them.
