Have you heard of the man who claims and boasts of being the #1 NBA fan, and makes pro basketball his top priority? Listen to what he wrote in a national sports magazine recently.
April and May are not only my favorite months because of the NBA play-offs but they are my credit card company’s favorite months too. I’ll bet the credit card people think we celebrate Christmas in May instead of December at our house. Airline tickets, motel rooms, play-off tickets, meals… All of it adds up in a hurry. But quite frankly Christmas for me can’t hold a candle to the NBA play-offs.”
Thank you so much for volunteering your time to help with our recent Vacation Bible School. There is no better way to touch the lives of multiple children at one time than with the captive audience that Vacation Bible School affords.
I hope you were fortunate enough as a child to attend Vacation Bible School. What fond memories I have of it: learning bible lessons, making arts and crafts that related to the lesson, parent’s night and pledging allegiance to the American and Christian flags and the Bible. What a blast we had.
In the spirit of Christian fellowship and recreation for our young people, we will be starting a basketball program for youth ages 12-17. We want to offer this opportunity not only to for our church members, but to churches in the surrounding area as well.
Happy birthday as you enter a new stage in your life. Eighteen years of age is a special time – a time of new beginnings and a new chapter in your life.
In 2 Corinthians 5:17, the Bible says, “When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child and I reasoned like a child. But when I became a man I put childish things behind me.”
