Cooperation

Yesterday, we finished up our November’s virtue. The virtue for the month was Cooperation. I really enjoyed this month. I thought that the videos were excellent and the bible stories were great and ones that we do not hear all the time.

The progression from last month to this month and the future month is great as well. If you remember, in October, we talked about Individuality. This month, it was cooperation and next month, we are looking at Compassion.

It is very important for us to remember that each one of you have a gift that you can use. When we pull our gifts together, we can do so much more. Then, when we do this with passion, wow —– what a combination.

We are going to have a great time looking at the virtue of compassion and we hope to see you there.

November 20th: Ice Age

On Friday night, November 20th, we are going to have our monthly movie night. We will be watching Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaur. The doors will open at 6:00 and we will serve the dinner at 6:15 and the movie will begin around 6:30 (after everyone is through the line). We hope to see you there.

Nov. 15: Little Help From Friends

On Sunday, we took a look at the story where Jesus healed the paralyzed man. The story can be found in Luke 5:17-26.

We once again learned that by working together we can do more together than we can do alone.

Also, we looked specifically that when friends who trust God work together to change lives.

We are having a great time during SNL as we learn about virtues and as we break down and have our music and bible connection time.

We hope to see you next Sunday as we finish looking at cooperation.
