    Help with parental supervision?

    AjayCTN, I like the idea of the letter for parents, instructing them to join their child in the Kids Ministry. I am thinking, at this stage, that I might just accept thigns where they are at. I'll request/expect the front 2 rows of seats to be "reserved" and the KM leaders and ALL the kids can...
