Wii Bii Chillin'

We had a blast this evening at "Chill with Phil". We played Nintendo Wii (pronounced "wee") most of the night. We got some pictures and video of the action for you to enjoy.

In the picture above left, Amanda, Jessi and Heather enjoy some snacks. In the picture above right, Amanda gets set to tee off in Wii Golf. However, Amanda really struggled to find her putting game and thus, did not fair too well in this game. Jessi dominated finishing the three hole round at -1. In the picture below, I am giving golfing lessons to Josh as he works on his approach to the hole.

Another game we had a blast with was bowling. No pictures are available of that one but it was dominated by Jessi (again) as well as Dave. Have YOU ever bowled in YOUR living room? Fun stuff.

One of the most physically intensive games was boxing. Check out the video (bottom of post) of Dave and Josh going at it!

You can also check out the picture of Dave and Josh in head-to-head action! But Phil was not to be denied as the champ in this one going 2-0 versus what turned out to be not so tought competition! NOT IN MY HOUSE!!

All you Sr. High kids, be sure to join us at the next Chill with Phil night!

Videos Available!

If you want to get an idea of how the Kickoff went, check out the video! It is in Windows Media (wmv) format so for best results you can view it on your windows media player. It may work better if you download it first.

You can also check out our music video we put together last year with some of our Jr. High students to the song "Live Out Loud."

Sr. High - Don't forget to come out to Phil and Heather's house for "Chill with Phil" on September 14. I know many of you have football games to attend but we'll still be chillin' until 11:00 pm, so come on out afterwards!

Kickoff Results

We had a total of 64 teens between grade 6 and 12 come out to our Word of Life Kickoff on Wednesday. They were divided into six teams to compete for the coveted "Walk by Faith" trophy. The battle took place between the Blue, Orange, Camo, Lime, Yellow and Checkered color bandana teams and in the end, it was the Orange team coming out on top.

The games ranged from an obstacle course, to a golf challenge where the teens were blind-folded, to a wheelbarrow run, a watermelon relay and marshmallow steppin'.

Our Word of Life Club meets Wednesday evenings from 6-7:30 pm at Tri-County Bible Church.
