It's Monday Today...
It's Monday today (still... just...) and I am sure that most of the frequent readers of my blog (rather than those who just happen to stumble across it while gargling red fizzy drink [that was something we didn't try!!]) would know that each Monday brings about an instruction to take a look at Sam's Word of the Week blog (and the link is still over there if you want to put it into your favourites/bookmarks)... This word's week (or perhaps this week's word) is a good one!! Nice work for a sick Sam! (and some good instructions from yourself too!!) [Sam is sick for those who do not know.]
What has happened since Friday? Well CrossOver was really good... For Getaway (pronouced Jetaway) we took a look at Community Medical Stores in the Philippines, of which I have forgotten the name of, and of which we as a youth group are raising money to create one. We also played "Post box" which is a really fun wide game (we like wide games at CrossOver) which involved hiding and attempting to find various leaders (except us leaders shared the roles around during the game, and the youth did not know that we were going to do so, but it was all good)... The devotion was on Peter and John going to the Temple and finding a lame guy at the entrance to "Beautiful" (I am pressuming that that is a location) and Peter healing him through the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. It was good. It was acted out by Bec P, Sam and Lawson. Then in the small groups, Bec P, Melissa G and I were singing the song that goes with the passage in Acts, and Philippa L saying that we had been to too many Sunday Schools because she does not know that song...
Saturday... I went shopping... Got Rosie and Andrew's engagement present (I can't tell you what it is yet... You are going to have to wait until after the engagement party) and got a few other things, but I can't remember what they are... Hang on! One of the things that I bought was straws that sing Happy Birthday... They are cool... I got Megan G and Ange B one each for their birthdays back in Feb/March.
On Saturday night I went to bed at 8 and watched some movies, then did some work on the CrossOver Getaway presentation for this week...
Sunday... Went to Wagga Baps in the AM (there was a Brigades parade as part of the service) and then to Mr Winkler's birthday BBQ... Then I came home at about 5, made some fudge, did something else that I can not remember what it was, and then went to UniChurch... Didn't leave there until 10.15, and somehow got home in less than 20 mins (please don't ask me how, cos I don't know, and I wasn't speeding!! Honest!!)
And then today... Work. Followed by cooking for Biblestudy, which was followed by Biblestudy. We had chocolate fudge and ANZAC biscuits and Kettle chips and red softdrink (that no-one thought to gargle) and lemon drink for supper. The study was on Prayer (Luke 11:1-13) and how we should pray, and who we are praying to. It was a good study...
And now, I am going to email this to Sam and go to bed!!
Nighty night!!
