November 25

Well I am a little late this week getting up a post about Stockade this week. As you can see we played floor hockey this week as well as a game where you had to ask questions with "yes" or "no" answers to figure out who was on your back. It was a great time. The Builders were doing some sort of obstacle course during their post time. The Sentinels had a story and also were talking about our theme verse this week which was 2 Corinthians 8:21, "We are taking pains to do what is right, not only in the eyes of the Lord but also in the eyes of men."

We also had a planning meeting with the Rangers this week. We have a few events coming up in the New Year that will be great, stay tuned for that!

Remembrance Day

Well even though it was Remembrance Day we still had Stockade. We were short a few guys but we had a great time anyway. We had a tug-of-war during game time and also played a fun animal action game. In post time we talked about integrity and what that means. We heard several stories and talked about how the people in all those stories had many opportunities to do the right thing, but they had to make a choice. Our theme verse was from Proverbs 20:11, "Even a child is known by his actions, by whether his conduct is pure and right."

Hope to see you all next week. Remember to pray for Ranger Ed, Caleb, and Simon who couldn't be with us because of the flu. Also stay tuned for a special event coming up soon!

November 4th

So tonight was another week of Stockade. We had a couple Rangers missing but a good evening none the less. Thanks to Ranger Trent for saving my bacon on the games, don't ask. Anyway I think the guys only made it part way across the Sea of Peanut Butter, maybe we will have to try that sailing again.

Tonight we reviewed the verses that we had learned up until this point. They are:

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Philippians 2:3

Live in peace with each other. Make sure nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else. 1 Thessalonians 5:13+15

They devoted themselves to the apostle's teachings and to fellowship and the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. Acts 2:42+47

The Lord is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other. Deuteronomy 4:39

He is the Rock, his works are perfect and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he. Deuteronomy 32:4

So be careful to do what the Lord your God has commanded you; do not turn aside to the right or to the left. Deuteronomy 5:32

My post had to work quite hard to remember them, maybe some of you other guys did better?

Remember to come to Grace on Sunday morning if you can. Church starts at 11:00am and we want to get everyone there IN UNIFORM to show off to the church. Hopefully even you guys who don't come to Grace can join us this week. Hope to see you all next week.
