"Bring them to Jesus"
Mark 2:3-5 (NKJV) 3 Then they came to Him, bringing a paralytic who was carried by four men. 4 And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying. 5 When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven you.”

Return: Leave at 6:00PM get Dinner on the way home
Cost: Ticket $37 early bird price (There is no clear cut off date for this so it would save us lots of money if we decided early when to go) $70 at the gate + Lunch money ($15 ish)+ Parking $5 per person to help cover cost for the van)+ Dinner Money ($15). Park food is expensive if they want it. I've timed it where they could eat lunch and dinner at the park as well if they wanted.
