BTLN UPDATE

 

Congrats to Jonny on his first helmet of the year! Andrew was also at the end with Jonny, but only Jonny was able to make it to the wall! This gave Jonny the win and the helmet! Congrats again to Jonny!

This week we played handball! Handball seems to be the group's favourite game right now! It was super awesome to see the excitement when we pulled the nets out! Brennan and Aiden's team had an early lead with a score of 7-2. Lance's team made a quick comeback, tying the score at 8-8. After the score was tied, we went to only one ball. It was first one to 11 wins. Brennan and Aiden's team scored three in a row, with Nelson scoring once, and Caleb scoring twice! This made the score 11-8 for Brennan and Aiden's team, giving them the win! It was a super awesome game of handball!

This week's Bible study was on making the most of every opportunity.

Here are some passages we read on the subject:

Ephesians 5:15-16  -  Be very careful, then, how you live-not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.

1 Corinthians 9:16  -  For when I preach the gospel, I cannot boast, since I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!

1 Peter 3:15-16  -  But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behaviour in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.

Since Jesus loves us so much, we should be compelled to share the love of God with others. We should make the most of every opportunity, and take every chance we can get to share the gospel of Jesus with others. Jesus died for our sins because he loves us so much. How can we not share the message of Jesus with others? Be encouraged to spread the good news of Jesus to those around you!

Thank you to all the boys and leaders who came to Battalion this week! We appreciate it! Battalion is back at the church again next Wednesday! Remember, Battalion is like Heaven, there's always room for one more! So bring a friend!
