How did Oct. 31st landing on a Saturday affect us in Discoveryland? 5 kids in 4th/5th. 36 kids ages 0 through 5th grade total. In a church of thousands which routinely sees a couple hundred kids on Saturday nights and roughly 900+ for a weekend total.

There isn't much to say about last weekend. We combined for worship and teach time with the 2nd/3rd graders, making our total 14. Teaching was done "unplugged," giving everything a bit of a different, quieter feel. So quiet I couldn't hear a thing. Dang I wished I would have used ear protection during certain loud activities throughout my life.

I emailed you all this weekend's small group info. I really expect a lot of kids this weekend. I am thinking Kevin, Tim, Em and Pam will be leading this weekend. Momica??? Someday. Zach Van B advised me he has returned from Wisconsin and is available. I will ask him to serve on Nov. 14th. Losing Tim that day to some gymnastics meet. I just learned he is a nuclear engineer about a month ago. Now I find out he is also a gymnast. That guy is amazing.

I am guessing Jeannine tapped into some of the economic stimulus billions because she landed new flat screen LCD HD TV's, two new HD X-boxes and a Wii last week. Em, Tim and Kevin got everything up and running, so the kids have a surprise coming.

Last week I posted a quiz for you. Sammy didn't win. He got second. The surprise winner was Pam! So you know, the images were: Houston Texans, Seattle Seahawks, St. Louis Rams, and Tennessee Titans. Nothing super extensive for this week. Just guess which make of car goes with this little fella.
