Hey guys,

We talked about this tonight.  This is Mary's song in Luke 1 in response to God's message that she will bear the Son of God.  It's a pretty awesome prayer/song.

Keep raising money.  We're almost to our goal!

The rap version:

God is great,
This is why we celebrate.
God is strong,
When your with Him you can't go wrong
We will praise Him everyday
Cuz' Jesus is the only way.
When you feel small and weak,
Jesus is the one you seek
If you feel like you might fall
Jesus is the one to call
That's why we're near the holy one
the Father, Spirit, and the Son
This is what from John we've heard
Everyday we read the WORD!

The non-rap version:

Yay God!
Praise the Lord
Cause He owns everything
Sits at the cool chair
Your are my Savior
Yay God!
AMEN!

Hey all,

Here are the pictures of certain scenes in Revelation.  There are a few more than I put here, but I'm saving them for when we cover that material.  All of the drawings are by a guy named Rodney Matthews and are copyrighted by him. 

These are four horsemen released by the first four seals.

This is the second trumpet judgment in which a huge mountain, which is on fire, is hurled into the seas, turning 1/3 of the seas into blood, killing 1/3 of sea life, and destroying 1/3 of all ships.

These pictures are of the demon locusts released by the fifth trumpet.  They are given power to torment those without the seal of God for five months.  As it says "in those days, men will seek death, but it will elude them."

This is the sixth trumpet judgment, in which an army of 200 million horsemen charge across the earth and kill 1/3 of the population.

Hey everyone,

We're changing the Bible contests into chances to make SPARC Bucks.  What we're going to do now is for each point you make during each quarter of the year, you can use to discount trips over the next quarter.  For example, let's say you get 36 points from now through March.  That means between April and June you can discount one trip $36 or three trips $12, or whatever combination you want.  The ways to get points are:

1. Bring your Bible to Sunday morning or SPARC Night (1 point each)
2. Win the Sword Drill competition and don't take a prize (2 points)
3. Memorize the weekly verse (3 points)
4. Read your vitamins and write a summary that shows you read them (10 points)

Let me know if you have any questions!

Brian
