Today was Stephen's first Sunday as our Middle School Minister and so a lot(ish) happened today!
1. When we first entered there were several announcements scrolling on the screen. Some of them were about stuff happening at our church others were how many days until we are out of school! In case you didn't see them all they are all listed below. What was on the screen is in red, and my comments are in blue:
a. Happy Mothers' Day!!
Well it is Mothers' Day so...
b. Coming Wednesday - Joseph.
That is the next topic for Stephen's Summer Blockbusters Sermon/Devotion/Wednesday Night Message Series.
c. Countdown to Summer:
- Williamson County 10 Days
- Davidson County 14 Days
Everyone is looking forward to summer, so it is only natural for Stephen to help us keep track of when it arrives!
d. Coming Soon - Post Game! Details to come!
I have no idea what the post game is, but we will find out probably Wednesday.
2. Today in Sunday School we did two things that are very different. Not different than what we normally do, but the two thing were very different:
a. We started a new book in the Known series. This month we are talking about Satan/The Devil. Stephen showed a few pictures of how people think of the devil. He had the classic arrowtail, red, evileyed, horned, devil. He also had a picture of this guy dressed as I devil which I think look a whole lot like some pizza cooker guy and then he had this really weird female devil covered in tree branches from some move about the devil underwater.
b. The other thing we did was each Sunday School class created a name, so that for all of the games we can keep track of the scores by each team. The names were:
6th Grade Boys - Green ElectricSox
6th Grade Girls - Purple Crusaders
7th Grade Guys(Philips) - Silver Spartans
7th Grade Guys(Yost) - Black Rebels
7th Grade Girls - Red Gummybears
8th Grade Guys - Brown Grandmas
8th Grade Girls - Pink Panthers
3. Coming Wednesday:
a. Next message in Summer Blockbusters Series about Joseph. Not Joseph, Jesus's dad, but Joseph as in the one with the coat of many colors.
b. A clip from the first movie Stephen ever made. In it he is a girl. He was afraid of girls and would never ask them to be in his movies, so he would always play a girl.
c. Make sure to practice the Minute Game. If you don't know about the minute game here is how you play. You close your eyes and when you think a minute has passed you raise your hand.
d. Hopefully Stephen will explain the post game whatever it is!
e. Wednesday is David's Birthday!
4. Coming in the Future
a. Sunday, May 16 is Graduate Recognition Sunday. Student Choir will be singing so make sure you be there are 8:00 AM ish.
b. Drew Turner's Birthday is Wednesday, May 19.
c. Jonathan Wilson's Birthday is Saturday, June 5
d. Brian Ericson's Birthday is Monday, June 7
