About Last Night.

We had a great time last night at Junior High for Talk Show Games Night. We played some classic games like Smart or Stupid, Brownie Points and Where Did You Get That Shirt?. Unfortunately, none of our students were able to win the big prizes, but a good time was had by all.

A couple of notes for Junior Highs and parents to keep aware of:

1. Beautiful Unique Girl is on April 18. The cost is 35$ it is for girls in grades 5-8. This will be a great time for all involved. Space is limited so speak to me soon if you need a registration card. Also, there are prizes for girls who bring friends.

2. On April 11 Junior High will be cancelled due to the church business meeting happening on that evening.

3. Next week we will be doing the Journey to the Cross, this is a great way for us to focus in on what Easter is all about and really what our faith is all about. Parents are welcome to participate along with the students.

About Last Night.

Crazy good weather we are having this week, we took advantage of that last night by playing some outdoor games and doing our teaching outside. While the outside teaching seemed like a good idea, it was discovered early on that the mosquitos are taking advantage of these warm days and used us all as a buffet while the teaching was happening.

We concluded our series on friends last night by talking about 'counterfeit friends' we discussed the importance of keeping our true friends close and recognizing 'counterfeit friends' who aren't true to us in friendship.

We also announced that on April 18, Beautiful Unique Girl will be at GCF for a Pajama Party with girls in grades 5-8. This will be a great event with an awesome message for girls, activities, nail painting, pizza and a chocolate fountain. The cost is $35 per girl. Please speak with me for more details or if the cost is an obstacle in any way.

About Last Night

Last night at Junior High was all about friendships. We started off by pairing up in a marshmallow swing game and then played some Bum Bum Scoot.

In our talk, we discussed some of what the Bible says about friends. While we want to love everyone, the Bible is clear that we should be selective in who we choose to call a friend. We looked at the relationship between David and Jonathan in the Bible and what it truly means to be a friend.

On Friday the Junior Highs are invited to join the Senior Highs as we go to Robert Little Public School in Acton for some ball hockey from 7-9. This will be a fun night. Students will also be able to pick up 30 Hour Famine pledge forms on Friday.
