Soccer Day

Saturday, July 25th, 2009

We had a great Friday this week! Our theme was “Exercise”.

1) Needed for physical health

2) Exercising Your Faith is needed for spiritual health.

We learned how to share our faith by using the wordless book.The wordless book has a 6 pages displaying only a color. The color reminds us of a portion of the Gospel story. Here it is in case you haven’t heard it before …

BLACK – Sin

Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

RED – The Blood of Jesus

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Romans 5:8 “God demonstrates His love for us in this, while we were yet sinners Christ dies for us.”

BLUE – Faith/Believe

Galatians 2:16 “We become right with God, not by doing what the law commands, but by faith in Jesus Christ.”

WHITE – God’s Forgiveness (Our sins are gone!)

Psalm 51:7 ” Wash me and I will be whiter than snow.”

GREEN – Grow in the Lord

2 Peter 3:18 “But grow in the special favor and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

YELLOW/GOLD – Heaven (Street of Gold)

John 14:2-3 “I am going to prepare a place for you … when everything is ready I will come and get you.

After learning the Gospel Story, we headed to the YMCA for some exercise and soccer fun. Coach Mike Wallace and his volunteers were great! We learned to dribble, pass, and shoot the soccer ball. At the end of the day, everyone received a Gospel soccer ball with all the colors of the gospel story.

A Fabulous Friday was had by all!

After all the prayer and preparation, we launched the First Fabulous Friday of the year! Our Bible Boot Camp is all about Growing in the Lord.

This week we have talked about prayer. We are learning to actually have a conversation with God rather then just throwing a memorized prayer God’s way. We are using the Lord’s Prayer as our example. Mrs. Pat built a beautiful prayer path to help us along our way. I am amazed at how the children find it helpful. HOpefully, the adults at church will use the prayer path as well.
