weekly wrapup 12.14.08

Lesson Topic: Developing Habits - Involving Yourself in Church
Attendance: Above average
'Fun' Factor: make-a-santa. you can see from the video above how it worked out. just for the record the team on the right was the jr. high...poor Kenny was at the mercy of his peers. andrew is on the left and you can see there was a more creative and artistic look at work...devon and jacob together won the effort.
Volunteer Involvement: Above Average. I love our volunteers. Such energy!
Music: veneration kicked us off with some amped CHRISTmas carols - O Holy Night, First Noel and What Child is This.
Lesson Quality: Above Average
Length of Lesson: we started the night with small groups...which are growing. tonite it took a little more effort to get the sr high women to break up..."we're having so much fun..." good stuff happening! Had a great conversation about what it means to be a apart of the "church". talked about moving from just "attending" to connecting and then really stepping up and serving. students were challenged to reach out to peers with next weeks "jingle ball '08" with revelation 22. its all about a good understanding of Acts 2...and a even better understanding of our mission to "reach and teach."
