A Step back in time!!!

Last night at CLC (at church) our usual wonderful opening leader (Go Allison, Go Allison) was sick along with Tucker so we had a sub, well Miss Nettie did a wonderful job. Since we didn't have music or any of our usual things Miss Nettie did a question time in the book of Genesis, it was great, the kids waited patiently while another class got to answer a question, looking up the answer with them, helping them out, then once all the classes got to answer one question, she had three questions for anyone to answer, it was kewl just to watch the kids all wait for the question then the clue she gave them, everyone was having so much fun we even went over our normal time slot but it has been a long time since I have seen a question time for kids to look up the answers and then they had to tell where the scripture was from and read it outloud. Of course we also seen a side of some adults (no competition there, right?? and you know who you are) that was exciting for them also. I just thought it was great and I think we should do it again. Later on in the night, my class (with a wonderful helper Mary) and Paula and Dave class played a pattern game together and with that game they learned that even just reading even one verse a day was a pattern, there was only 1 girl out of 6 kids that actually said she read her Bible everyday, now I thought how sad, maybe with reminding the kids every wednesday night about that game, maybe other kids will follow that pattern of reading their Bible.
