That’s right! Paintball & Church do make sense together. It’s about meeting new people, teamwork, leadership, mercy (thanks for not pelting me too much), and of course, fun. Can I say that Jesus would paintball? I don’t know. But he would enjoy life. He loved laughing and having fun and being with his friends. That’s all part of being a Christian. Oh, and we all forgave each other, right? If someone hit you in the arm causing a bloody welt, you laughed and showed others. Then whoever hit you was excited to claim the shot. That’s the crazy kind of forgiving life Jesus wants us to live off the paintball field. Keep that in mind as you face issues at home, school, or with friends.
FIRE UP! For Paintball with BLC Teens on Sunday, November 13th at 1:00pm at Sherwood Forest. $10 per person (BLC is picking up the rest of the tab). Be sure to get permission slips signed and turned in! Meet at Sherwood Forest at 1:00pm.

It’s Confirmation Sunday on October 30th at the 10:45 worship. Lets all celebrate together with our confirmands at the reception after church (around Noon) with cupcakes and punch!
The high school class has started for Sunday school!!! We are studying Acts 2:42 this year. “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to prayer.” We will be focusing on worship, serving, learning, and prayer, just like the apostles did.
Worship: We will attend Fuel Service when the band plays to worship with them. We will also attend other local churches, or worship in our classroom.
Serving: We will be serving at different local places. Some of the options we have our Settlers House, food pantry, soup kitchen, and cleaning up the community.
Learning: We will spend some time in the Bible. As we are learning about God, we will also be learning about each other.
Praying: We will spend time in prayer. We will pray for our local community, our nation, and our world!
Hope to high schoolers on Sundays at 9:15 in the care room.
