~ A Different Kind of Week! ~

This week there was no time for gardening ...

sewing ...

reading ...

or anything else!

Almost every waking moment was spent on preparing for our church's annual youth rally!

I was assigned to teach one of the classes of teen and pre-teen girls.  I had 19 precious young ladies in my class and we talked about baptism in the Old Testament.  It was quite the joy to teach these girls what God's Word says about the subject.  We started the class by getting everyone's opinions and thoughts on baptism.  I then made the statement that when it came right down to it, it didn't really matter what they or I thought, but it did matter what God's Word said.  We then started looking at and marking Scripture in our Bibles from the Old Testament that showed what God's thoughts on baptism was and is, beginning with Genesis.

The other thing I was assigned to do was to create a scavenger hunt that went along with our theme ... Saved through Water.  Some 45 children of various ages ran all over the church yard looking for the clues they needed to win the hunt!  It was so much fun to watch them hunting down God's Word!

I got absolutely nothing else done this week except the prep for this event and while I missed being in my garden, etc, working for God takes precedent in my life.

Next week, I'll be playing catchup.  I have lots of plants that I grew from seeds that need to get in the ground.  It's also time to get the summer veggie seeds in the ground.  I've got a full week, so stay tuned!

Here's a couple of posts from the archives for you to read in the mean time ...

That's it for this week, I hope you've found something in my ramblings that will help and or encourage you in the upcoming week.

Until the next time ...
