Wednesday Evening Service Cancellation

Due to the extremely chilly temps that are expected beginning tomorrow night, we have decided to cancel all Wednesday evening activities at Tri-County Bible Church on January 14.

WOL teens - you will be well served to spend this extra time memorizing some verses from the verse paks! :D

God Bless and stay warm!

Wii Bii Chillin'

We had a bunch of teens come out to Chill with Phil this evening. We had the Nintendo Wii games going all night with Tennis, Bowling, Boxing and Golf. We also had other games like euchre and Catch Phrase. There was a bunch of great food including homemade carmel apples!

Car Capers 2008

We had a blast with all the Senior High teens that came to Car Capers last night. We had some great games including a drag race where your team had to push a car across the parking lot in a race against another car, an obsacle course, a creeper race, a tire and hubcap toss and a tire changing challenge.

Despite a little drizzle, everyone had a great time enjoying great food and music as well.

The videos are of the obstacle course and the creeper race. These games were a lot more challenging than they look. More than one person left a little blood out on the track.

Thanks to all the leaders and adults that helped set up and run the games, make the food, challenge the teens, set up the sound system, etc, that made this event a success! Thanks to the teens for bringing your friends out for a fun time and opportunity to hear the Word being preached.

FIREPROOF

FIREPROOF opened this weekend and we took several WOL leaders along with their spouses to see it this evening. It was very well done and made some excellent points in helping us keep our marriages Christ-like. If you want a thriving relationship, you must be willing to serve. It's not about you, it's about Christ, and one way we can demonstrate our love to our spouse is by serving her (him).

Make a date with your mate and go see this movie!

A Time To Dance

We had our first Chill with Phil of the year tonight. We kicked it up w/ the electric slide, the cha cha, the macarena, Cotton-Eyed Joe, etc. Then, for more kicks my team beat up on Jake's team in euchre. (Reminded me of great times in Brazil.)

We had a great group and a ton of fun...of course.

Here are a couple pics and a video from the night.

WOL Kickoff 2008

We had an awesome kickoff this evening. We met at church, got everyone signed in and sang some songs with some members of S.O.S. (Saving of Souls) Christian Band. Phil shared a message on pursuing eternal treasures and then we split up into teams and went on a pursuit of our own...a scavenger hunt. Each team had to find clues at various locations in Rensselaer. Some were pretty challenging but all teams completed the route and it was a great time.

Here are a few pictures from the evening...
