Went by so fast...

Wow, I can barely believe that Life Groups are already moving into their breaks. It seems like only a couple of weeks ago that we started our groups. 6th graders learning what this "Life Group" thing is, 7th graders finally not being the smallest of the group, and 8th graders preparing for their final year in Jr High.

It has been such a blessing to see their lives change before our eyes. The 8th grade girls Life Group this year has been focusing on Women of the Bible and how our lives, modern day, can and should be influenced by the incredible Women of the Bible. So far we have studied: Esther, Rahab, Mary and Martha, Ruth and others. It amazes me how much we can relate to these women and what kind of questions about our faith come from hearing these stories.

Another Highlight of Jr High:
If you feel like Sunday mornings are too big for you? If you don't do very well with waking up in time for Sunday service? If you haven't already checked out our Saturday night service, you should! Every Saturday during the main service we hold a Junior High service in U1, Ronnie and I have the privilege of leading this service. Every week I am amazed at how much fun we have. Since the group is smaller, about 30-40 Jr Highers, our leaders are able to make lasting connections every week. We play tons of different games, occasionally have worship, and teach from the Word.

Hope everyone has an amazing Christmas Season! Eat too much turkey, let the tryptophane put you into nap time.


Love you all!

Heather
