Prepare For Look Up Lodge 2010!
Preparations are being made for our annual Summer trip to Look Up Lodge. We'll be leaving Sunday, June 27. Laura and Jamal are working up there again this Summer and we can't wait to see them. Here's a look at Look Up Lodge this week - our friends at Mount Hermon Baptist are up there this week!
Valentine's Day Banquet 2010
We want to shout out a big THANK YOU to all the volunteers that helped us raise money for camp with our Annual Valentine's Banquet. We appreciate the parents, volunteers and all the church people who came out and supported us, thank you, thank you!
It was another great Valentine's Banquet. The youth did a great job working hard and having a servant's heart. Enjoy the following photos.
We always look forward to seeing Mr. JB's Valentine Socks.
It's a tradition.
Takin' the Short Bus to Town
So we jumped on the bus and hit the road to the bowling alley.
What I like about the bowling alley ....
.... is the strange way people bowl.
No two bowlers have the same technique.
Will threw side-armed, below, and bowled great.
I thought he was horsing around.
He wasn't.
And B, well, I'm sure nobody bowls like B:
And it's kind of fun, too, to see how people act after they score.
But sometimes it's all just a bit too much for anyone.
FBC Youth In Ministry
One great thing about our youth is that they usually are ready at the drop of a hat to help someone out. You have to ask them to help, mind you, they might not notice you requiring assistance, but when asked, they're there.And a great thing about Billy and Doug leading our youth is that they are teaching our men to be men. To jump in and do the dirty jobs. To rescue a damsel in distress. To work.... hard.... even in the rain.
Even on a football-esque Sunday afternoon.
So when a single female in our church had been without water a few days, wasn't sure what was wrong, wasn't sure what to do.....
... our guys jumped right in. Replaced her pump in the rain at no labor cost to her.That's what a church family is all about.
And, of course, the guys found a little time for a quick game of Ugg Ball
in which they used an old tire for a ball.
FBC Youth.... at your service.
In His service.
Bonfire & Bible Study
It's the time of year when our youth group takes their Sunday Night Bible Studies on the road. Usually, they end up at Busbee's around a bonfire.
Last night was their second bonfire this season.
For the first hour, there were only two girls present.
They were outnumbered.
Overlooked.
Bored.
So B dug out the tractor and took Marj on an innocent little redneck hayride.
While the guys were enjoying a manly round of the Hokey Pokey.
The girls roared through their game, hair flying, screams bellowing.
Hokey Pokey interrupted.
Guys: "Oh no. We are not gonna stand idly by while they ruin our fun."
The Hokey Pokey Hayride became a game of redneck dodge ball.
Marj yelled "Retreat!" and B had the pedal down the whole way back to the shed.
And I'm sure once all that energy was expended, Billy could settle them down around the fire for Bible Study time.
Rivalry in the Youth Group
It was kind of like Ohio St. vs Michigan.or Alabama vs Auburn
or Clemson/Carolina
But 'cept smaller.
Wagener vs Pelion.
It's a faceoff.
The oldest rivalry in FBC Youth Group history.
Raymond Middleswarth took on Garrett Wood.The bets around here were on Garrett.
However....
Middleswarth led his team to a 38-18 victory favoring a steady rushing attack with Pelion capping the game with 375 yards rushing. And Pelion's kicker?
Yeah. She's a girl.
Sure. We have the whole thing on tape.
And for the news.... A fire in the concession booth at Silver Bluff has resulted in new county laws requiring all deep fryers to be used out of doors only.Thanks to these kind gents for keeping the fries on our menu.
