Sunday morning Jr. High class

Did you know that there is a class just for Jr. High on Sunday morning? There is!

The class meets in the middle room at 9:00 in the morning. This is the same time as the adult classes. So your parents have something to do while you are having a good time learning about God, the Bible, Jesus, each other, Steve, and other things of a more random nature.

Steve has been leading the class. We spend some time getting to know each other and talking about our week before we get into the Bible. This is usually a fun time and Steve even brings food once in a while.

We just finished reading through and doing an overview of the book of Revelation. We found that Revelation is not an easy book to get and there are several opinions about it even among christians who usually agree about the Bible. We did agree that the book of Revelation is a great comfort as it clearly shows God is in control. We also decided that heaven is going to be a real cool place.

We are going to start a new topic this Sunday. If you like to talk about people (no, not gossip) we are going to do just that. We will look at people in the Bible that you may not know much about or have even heard about. This will be fun. You might just learn something too.

Find me on the web

Let's make this interesting. Find a picture of me (Steve) on the web. I will give you a couple of clues to get started. First: Don't enter my name in a browser like Google. My name is not attached to the photo. Second: Think about where I work. Third: Think television.

I will have a prize for the first person who can tell me where they found the photo and what was happening in the photo. It is not an expensive prize but I think it will have value.

More clues will be posted if no one provides the correct answer.

One more hint. There are several photos with me in them. You might even find me "in action" but I am not doing anything more than walking. If you can identify me in these other places, you have done better than I would expect.

31 Cent Scoop Nite

It was 31 Cent Scoop Nite at Baskin Robbins tonight.  The Jr. High group spontaneously got permission from parents, hopped into 3 different staff vehicles, and made a quick trip to Baskin Robbins for scoops of ice cream.  17 Students and adults served for just under $10.00.  What a fun nite!  Lots of giggles, singing of praise music in cars, good conversation, guy bonding, and more.  The Jr. High crowd loves spontaneous times.  We love helping them have fun.  Slayde had fun too!
