My Good Luck Charm for the weekend.The finale is finally here. I know many waited in great anticipation for what would be the conclusion to the Preacher Man's weekend. Well, wait no more. Sunday, the last day of the retreat that happened almost two weeks ago.
We started this day with brunch followed by an event known as the olympics. Kids were put into teams to compete in a relay type event that consisted of many different tasks. The would have to determine which team member would do what and they had to make sure each member competed in something. They did things like bob-for-apples, chew gum and blow a bubble, eat 5 saltine crackers and whistle, and pull marshmallows out of chocolate syrup with their teeth (like in the pic).
The olympics were followed by a great worship session and then I delivered my finale message. I talked about finishing strong and playing our position or role the absolute best that we could. Making sure that we leave everything on field. I told the kids that the endzone is in site. And if we press on and dig in and finish strong we will reach the endzone. I showed the end of the movie "Rudy" where Rudy goes in to the game and sacks the quarterback on the last play of the game. He is carried off the field by his teammates who are crazily celebrating. If we play the role we are supposed to play, when we get to the end, Heaven will lift us up on it's shoulders and celebrate loudly for us. So we must press on!!! Finish Strong!!!
Yummy!!
