We are having two informational meetings!We have been enormously blessed to be able to participate in the National Bible Bee for the last nine years. We have seen many families grow in their knowledge of God, their ability to study His word and see the faith of many grow. Memorizing the scriptures is the most worthwhile endeavor we can do! We would love to share with you the awesome resources National Bible Bee has to offer. Please join us April 7th at 10 am or May 4th at 7 pm. The meetings will be held at Ciampi Ranch 4923 W. Greenway Rd. Glendale 85306 Please feel free to pass the meeting information to any other families you think might be interested as well.

The 5th annual campout is now in the books! This year was again a hit and we enjoyed the time spent in cooler weather! We opened the first night with a fish pinata (to represent the Created theme.) Everyone had a fun time taking a swing and when the fish burst many small camping trinkets and toys fell out. The next few days were spent playing games hosted by different people, quiet walks, fishing, canoeing, campfire sings, stargazing and warm drinks! We again trekked to the sinkhole and this year many kids/teens braved the steep incline to visit the geocache. Overall, it was a well spent weekend!
What a beautiful and God honoring event the GPBB celebration and Arizona Proclaim day was! We praise God for the many prayers that were answered for that day and for the many helping hands we had! Special thanks to Paul Leavitt from Leavitt Visuals for taking on the task of filming and photographing the event and the other ways in which he helped out! Enjoy the pictures and video from the day! 2017 Greater Phoenix Bible Bee FamiliesPrimariesJuniorsSeniorsAll DivisionsCongratulations to all the 2017 National Bible Bee participants! Participants from around the StateIt was a pleasure to have representatives from all of the Bible Bee groups in Arizona attending the Arizona Proclaim event! Many guests were in attendance as well and we pray that they were blessed by the event! We got to hear Genesis 1-3 and Psalm 103 recited by the many families of the different Arizona groups, including sections in Spanish from the Tucson group! What a joy it is to hear God's word proclaimed in another language! We also had some other fun elements to the event that made it an enjoyable experience!
Until next year! We thought you would like some ideas to make camping easier, so here are some camping hacks! Most of the pictures are links that take you straight to the page and the checklist is printable when you click on it! Worship and Prayer

However, we gain the most benefit from the Bible when we mediate on God's word! Check out the video below and consider joining us this fall for the group version of Rise Up and to build the habit of mediation into our lives! Thank you all so much for allowing us to be your hosts this summer! We have loved seeing all that you have learned about our great Creator!
The Tucson group wanted to know what we did as a Bee so we did a meeting with them! We shared what we do and they shared what they do. We played a little flip quiz with them and we all took turns reciting scripture. A nice afternoon for sure! A highlight was the special prayer time we had! Thank you Tucson for inviting us to share a Bible Bee meeting with you! We look forward to seeing you soon! The finish line is in sight! A racer always gets a second wind when the finish line is in sight! Be like Paul said and "run with endurance the race set before you" . . . and finish strong! At the end of this week, you should have finished the Discovery Journal and know all your memory passages! Come to our last Hive Meeting ready to share how you were encouraged, challenged and changed this summer! Please wear your any Bible Bee shirt and prepare for fun, food and fellowship!
