Chili Challenge & Teacher Training

What a great time we had Sunday evening with our annual Chili Bowl Challenge! It was a fierce competition with 10 entries. Our panel of expert judges debated, argued and finally reached consensus. The winners were Ashley Darland second runner up; Suzan Hatcher first runner up; and our champion – the team of Kevin Foote Jr., Samuel Hoyt and Robbie Austin. Congratulations to our winners and to all who competed. There were some great soups brought too! We may have to add a category next year. [Note: the winning recipe is printed in this addition of the newsletter.] I also want to thank all those who helped get things organize and those who stayed and cleaned up afterwards.

Teachers, don’t forget the training opportunity beginning this Sunday evening at 4:30. Todd Cochrane will lead a class studying the Seven Laws of the Learner. This will be an excellent class for the seasoned teacher but also those who are interested in teaching but who are unsure of how to go about it or not sure they are up to the task. This 8-week course will help to make you an effective teacher. There is no cost for the class and it will be a wonderful tool to equip you. I hope you will take advantage of this training.

I look forward to seeing you and your family in worship this coming Lord’s day.
