December 7


Well I went to get the pictures I took this week and realized that I still had the ones from last week on the camera. I included a couple of them in the collage.

We had a fun week this week. We started with some box hockey, which was a popular one. Seems as though one or two of the guys must play it elsewhere because they were quite good. Ranger Laird had some games for us, including two variations of steal the bacon, and the memory game.

In post time we learned 1 Peter 4:10, "Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms," I like that last part about " faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms", we all have different gifts and when we use the gifts that God gives us it looks different for each of us but the result should always be God's grace being seen through what we do. We also talked about bridges and our post even saw some pictures of some famous bridges. We also learned how Jesus dying on the cross is like a bridge for us to be able to get to God.

In story circle Ranger Ed, showed us an experiment with a salt and some water that produced heat. Ranger Ed talked about how he likes to try to figure things out and so as a chemist he gets to explore some of the things that God has made and how they work. After post time we had more box hockey and a demonstration from Ranger Ed that turned a solid directly into a gas!! Ask you son about that one, as you can see from the pictures it was GREAT!

Remember next week is the last Stockade before Christmas. January 6th will be the first meeting of the New Year.
