This report from last week's Awesome Time comes from Sue... thanks Sue!
WOW!!! We had a
great morning this morning!!! :-)
FBI - Top Secret
The case - Who did their
homework?
Agent in charge - Carol
Barron - who delegated Agent Philomena - complete with bullet-proof vest,
handcuffs, and gun - to oversee the mission in her absence.
The mission -
interrogate suspects (using force if necessary) and gather evidence to find out
who has done their homework!
Our Awesome Kids did a
fantastic job of locating all of our suspects - even when they tried to escape
out the door!!!
The homework? What
is God's spirit saying to you?
We found out from our
suspects that God had called ALL of them to do various jobs - some were called
into big jobs, like ministry, others had jobs involving their talents, like
music, while others were called to help others, spread love, and be the best
kinds of people they could be. The Awesome Kids, when asked to sum up
what they had found out, said the one thing they all had in common was that
they were called by God - our suspects knew it was God because it felt right in
their hearts.
Then we watched a short
video clip about Hannah Taylor. When she was 5 she saw a homeless person
in the street. This worried her. When she was 6 she decided she had
to do something about it, and started trying to raise money to help the
homeless. When she was 8, the ladybug foundation was started, which
raises money to help charities that are helping the homeless - $30,000 had
already been raised! Now, Hannah is 19, and the foundation has raised
over $3,000,000!
Upstairs, we made some
ladybug jars. Hannah used hers to raise money. We talked about what
we could use ours for.. One of the suggestions was to use it as a lolly
jar - and for each lolly we ate, we could give one away. We also talked
about what we could do to help God - maybe we could sit with someone who is alone
at school, or invite someone over to play a game with us, or maybe we can just
share a smile with someone who looks sad.
