Now to re-cap! We had a really, really good youth last week! Shane led the 3rd and last Bible study from our mini series about the trinity. Afterwards, we spent some time outside on our huge snow hill at the church (thanks to all the snow clearing!) playing some relay-like games. We split into two teams and took on 5 challenges: 1)Build a pyramid 3 ft. tall out of snowballs the fastest, 2)Transfer as much snow as possible from one area to the other in a certain amount of time, 3)Toss as many snowballs as you can successfully into a big garbage can in a certain amount of time, 4)Try to find 2 bags of candy hidden in the snow the fastest, 5)Dig as deep of a hole as you can in attempt to completely hide your shortest standing teammate. After I was completely cold and the youth were boiling hot outside, we headed inside for another fantastic snack - FINGER JELL-O! I personally completely forgot how much I love finger jell-o. I have a feeling this weekend will bring me many snacks of finger jell-o to fulfill this re-found snack that I love! Thanks Aaron!!!
