MK Safari is the JAARS morning summer program for children who have completed kindergarten through the fifth grade. We plan to have an exciting, spiritual, educational, and fun program.  Activities include Bible memory, team games, crafts, special guests and swimming.  For more information contact: Laraine_Mann@wycliffe.org.

Child Safety Logo 
 
We value child safety at JAARS, and so anyone that works with kids or teens has to pass a criminal background check, as well as sign a code of conduct.  Those that do get this logo on their ID badge.

Bible Reading & Memorization Plans 
 

We have three Bible reading plans available for downloading on the Forms and Fliers page.  As well, we have Bible memory page which lists good memory verses by topic.

These three plans are great tools to get into God's word this year.  You can choose to read through the entire Bible in a year, or just the New Testament.  Talk with your friends and pick one that you can read through together!
