Youth Sunday

Today was Youth Sunday at Pilgrim. E had the second part of her two-day golf tournament so she missed it. B, however, was there and ushered. He looks so excited, doesn't he? After he did the offering and was taking the basket back to the altar, one of the checks flew out. He picked it back up and tossed it in the basket, but that was a funny moment.

Also part of Youth Sunday, L and her friend, N, were the two fifth-graders who received their Bibles today. Her name is printed on the front in golf lettering and they gave her a pretty bookmark with a "friend" charm on it. They said they chose "friend" on hers because L is such a good friend to N.

L wore a beautiful new dress that she changed immediately after the presentation. She went directly to N's birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese after church so I knew she wasn't going to be in the dress all day. For her Bible verse, she picked Psalm 33:3, "Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully on the strings, with loud shouts." She certainly likes to sing and shout. After church there was a kid-friendly fellowship hour with Domino's pizza, Capri Suns, cookies and cheesecake.
