Assignments this week
- As suggested by the article in your packets the first week, listen to John at least once a day or read John daily. You can vary your reading of John by reading it aloud to yourself; reading it to someone else; reading it out loud together with a parent or sibling; reading it out loud as a family; taking turns reading it out loud as a family with each person reading a few verses.
- Continue writing one or two verses of John in a notebook so you will have completed three chapters by the end of the summer!
- By the end of this week, you should have six verses memorized! Exodus 3:13-14, Romans 12:1-5, John 13:13-17, Isaiah 53:5-7, John 13:34-35, 1 John 2:7-11. We also learned John 15:4-5 at our last two meetings, so that would actually make seven!
- Are you using your weekly challenge sheets? Please bring your weekly challenge sheets so we can award your Bible Bee Bucks to be used in the "store" on Celebration Day.
- See email to sign up for volunteering at a Hive Meeting and let us know what you would like to do!
Dessert Theme
Hey families, Owen here! Okay, this Saturday I wanted to do something fun and cool!! :P I asked a good friend of ours if he would come over and let us use his AWESOME ice cream maker. (YOU GOT TO COME AND SEE WHY IT'S AWESOME!!) So, he's coming and he's going to make us ice cream for dessert after lunch. I want YOU GUYS (families) to bring toppings for the ice cream!!! Toppings can include: sprinkles, chocolate chips, graham crackers, bananas, chocolate syrup, walnuts, pecans, peanuts, carmel syrup, strawberries, etc. I'm bringing roasted, salted peanuts. Email me what you are bringing for toppings. [email protected] Thanks. (or post in the comments below) Please bring your own dairy and/or gluten free alternatives.
