On Sunday, the kids in Children's Church helped paint a bunch of canvases using negative space to create stained glass looking panels. Today, they got hung up in the new craft room in the kid's wing!

Nine kids cranked out 24 panels in less than 30 minutes. And the outcome is awesome! Thank you, kids!
