With Little Umbrellas
At Trinity we do this thing called “Big Wednesday.” Basically it’s a bunch of different events happening at the same time, like Bible classes and choir practices. They serve a meal, so everyone gets to hang out together for a bit. It simplifies things. From 5-7 on Wednesday nights we have our youth Bible studies.
Last night we had a passing of the torch, so to speak, and in celebration of our arrival they made piña coladas (sans rum) and distributed them amongst the youth. Lyndsay and I had the honor of drinking ours out of hollowed-out pineapples.
We had the students write out questions for us that we read out loud and answered in order for them to get to know us a little bit. There were some great questions in there:
- Why did you take this job?
- What are your hopes and dreams for the youth group?
- How often do you shower?
The students were very welcoming, and I have high hopes for the time we spend with them.
