Week 3 Finished - Week 4 coming


I am glad to have week 3 and the storm past us.  Make sure the boys are keeping up with the timeline; In review they had a little trouble with it.  The presentations have be great so far this year.  Next weeks presentation will be a Bible Reading or Recitation (2-3 min).

In Psalm 119:11, David says, “I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.” What passages from God’s word have you hidden in your heart? Share a bible passage that is meaningful to you. Do your best to memorize your chosen passage. Enhance your presentation with props or actions.  The focus this week is on volume.

See you next week!

Matt

P.S.  Don't forget to start memorizing  your bible passage early!
