Photos by Charles Swenson/Coastal Observer Ava the Red-tailed Hawk is one of the Bible Buddies in the Jump @ Nite program. One of her relatives dropped in to watch the games from a nearby oak before settling on the sanctuary roof. “I can’t believe that,” said Ginger Beasley, at right, the director of the elementary programs.

A summer tradition since 1993, Nick at Nite returned last week to Pawleys Island Commu- nity Church with a new name: Jump @ Nite. The name reflects the church youth program. Jump start

Clockwise from above, David Clayton gives a boost at the start of a water slide. Shaving cream is one of the essential ingredients of Jump @ Nite. The water slides are a chance to play and to clean up. The soap suds are something to share. The event over three nights grows each night as the kids tell their friends, said Dustin Thompson, the pastor of student ministries. Children in grades one through six participate with help from dozens of church members and staff.

Sticky is not an option. Jump @ Nite games come with things guaranteed to make a mess. Some taste better than others.

Doug Wimsatt and Mo Meares send the kids out to the games. Julia Kohl listens to a Bible lesson. A moment of prayer during Jump @ Nite. COASTAL OBSERVER 10 Thursday, August 12, 2021
