Good News Club of Upper Pittsgrove School

The Good News Club at Upper Pittsgrove School was started in 2001 by Ginny

Gantz, a retired teacher at the school.

Through the years there have been 8 adult leaders, 10 student helpers. We have

used four different classrooms.

During our current year we have 13 faithful clubbers from kindergarten to third

grade. Their favorite part of club is the Bible Lesson together with the review

questions which always includes a game. They enjoy singing the songs and taking

turns leading the singing.

One of my favorite parts of club is prayer time; watching them learn how to pray

for anything and everything. We have prayed for jobs, cancer, families, sick pets,

broken bones and in particular this year praying for a clubber whose home burned

down.

Our favorite part of the curriculum is the focus on the truth of God’s Word, our

salvation through Jesus Christ, His sovereignty, and that God keeps His promises.

Our club runs from 3:30-4:30 each Tuesday from October to April. We begin with

a snack followed by a time of prayer and singing. The memory verse is presented

followed by the memory verse song, the Bible lesson and review game. We have

been blessed by the great support of the school staff and the technology provided in

the classroom.

Our leaders this year include me, Marilyn English, Mary Zientek, Verna Bryan and

Pastor Joe Schneider.
