Congrats Landon! This is Landon's first career Helmet! That first win is soo sweet! I am predicting that this won't be Landon's last Helmet. Could Landon be in the running for Winston next year? Only time will tell!
The night started with Menno on the bbq and Gatorade! Not sure how many Menno dogs were eaten this week but between this week and two weeks ago I'm sure that Btln 3739 collectively consumed one pig!
Football has always been the sport of choice at Btln 3739 in the spring, but the times they are a changing! Half of the guys wanted to play football and the other half wanted to play soccer. So this week we decided to play soccer at one end of the field and football at the other end! This actually worked well. Most of the younger guys played soccer while the grade elevens and twelves played football. This gave me the chance to get some revenge on the J-man for beating my team two weeks ago! We actually tried playing tackle football which turned out to be a bad idea. Oh well, I guess once in a while we need a reminder why we play touch football at Btln! The game was tied 21-21 so we had to go to overtime. Jason's team was first with the ball but was unable to score with four downs from the twenty yard line. Next my team had our chance and on first down Austin scored to give us the win 28-21! The young guys played soccer and it looked like a good time, Jake and Zach lead the way. The soccer game ended in a 3-3 tie.
In Bible study this week we tried to wrap up our year long series "The History of the World" or "His Story".
We talked about how Jesus was at the beginning of the history of the world as the Creator.
Colossians 1:15-17 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
Jesus didn't just create the world, he also holds it all together! And then when man sinned he didn't just sit back and watch us all perish, he was willing to sacrifice himself for us!
Colossians 2:13-14 When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross.
Jesus' death and resurrection is at the heart or center of the history of the world. All history revolves around what Jesus did for us at the cross!

Romans 6:6-7 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin—because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.
Jesus has set us free from sin!
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words.
Jesus will be there at the end of the world, to take us to heaven so that we can be with him forever!
Revelation 1:8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”
Next week is Last Night! Don't miss the 9 foot party sub from Subway! Spread the word!
THE CAPTAIN
