No, not that kind of meeting. I mean meeting three students from my church. I should add that none of them were in my class but rather I sort of just ran into them. Two of them approached me, and for the other I recognized his name and approached him. It started with graduatin rehearsal the […]

…for the 5th graders in children’s ministry that is. What? Did you think I meant I was done with this blog? Today the 5th graders made their exit from children’s ministry. In a couple of weeks they will officially enter student ministries as junior high students. Being Memorial Day weekend didn’t help though as there

Tonight I write this as I should be partying instead. Tonight is the end-of-year cast party for the children’s drama. Or rather, that is what the schedule says. The party was actually canceled due to lack of interest, plus a general grim outlook on people showing up on Wednesday nights for past rehearsals. If it
Well, I thought I was teaching at church today, but I found out otherwise- right before I was going to teach. As the kids sang worship songs, I went into an adjoining room to look over the lesson again. When I came out, the family pastor was there with his Bible ready to teach. Oh

One thing about my life is that I don’t easily form relational ties, as in friends. This does make it easier to live on a substitute teacher salary since I don’t go to social events, but it does make for a boring life. I have strong ties with my church, particularly children’s ministry, but outside
Definitely a full weekend this time around. My normal schedule is fairly busy as is, which is one drama and kid’s leader for two services (one same service as drama). Then I go to the worship service during the first Sunday service. This weekend was also a teaching weekend for me and I filled in

It was a little exhilarating to get back to the children’s drama this weekend. We had been off for over a month, partly due to Easter. So this weekend we were back with a vengeance, err- three of us were. I guess the other two were still on spring break or something. Fortunately the head
I just wanted to get that Godtube video up before continuing writing. I can’t believe it’s been three days since my last post (not counting the first Easter post of course!). Well, yesterday was a busy day. Friday was, well, Good Friday. Like a Good Friday should be, it was a very dreary day outside-

Okay, trying to make people say Resurrection Day instead of Easter is just pointless. If you’d like, Happy Resurrection Day! The celebration of Jesus Christ’s victory over death is upon us once again! Hallelujah! No, I wasn’t calling you over, Hallelujah (private joke: there is a boy named Hallelujah in one of the classes I
