Good morning, Everything went great last week cooking for the Bryant football team on Thursday and Friday. We introduced them to Potato Pearls and I think about half the football team said they were the best mashed potatoes they have ever eaten. We also introduced some of them to Diane Vickers’ homemade banana pudding. I made sure to get a big helping of it and it was fabulous. Thanks to Logan, James, Trish, Diane, and Shaun for helping feed the boys this past week. This week we have a couple things going on and you will find them below.

The past two weeks I have had more questions asked from students about God, existence, and the sort that I have in the past year.

Good morning everyone, The extended weekend seemed to be great for our students. I didn’t get an exact total but I believe we have around 100 folks at the bowling alley with our church representing about 65 of those. It was great to see some students that have never been to our church come to the evening service. A big thank you goes out to Carl Ray Moulds for driving the church bus with our students. The increased numbers allowed our Seniors to drive and for us to have a nice quiet bus ride with the Junior High students….
