Parade of Leaders Award

As every year 2 of our kids are selected to carry the banner in the annual Parade of Leaders at the convention.  The parade is friday night before the awards ceremony.  They will represent Walter Hill in the parade.  The 2 selected can be either a guy or a girl. 

The team leaders have been chosen by the team leaders through the L2L activities throughout the year (including the short film, good sam program and friday night practices.  A strong leader is one who leads through example. 

Example of participation, and example of preparing for the convention.  Last year our 2 leaders were Kathryn Byrd and Rachel Tracy. 
Throughout the year these 2 have been discussed as leaders through character and example.  Our leaders will be announced this evening at Church!

Great Job!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone did a great job Sunday evening!  The event started out with our the first annual Bible Bowl Dress Rehearsal Competition.  The L2L team of Abbi Tracy, Rachel Tracy, Donavan Knox and Drew Clark took on the adult team of Ken Reed, Tim Nance, Brian Hodge and Trampus McCracken.  The match was close!  The adults did a great job given they didn't have the questions to study.  Also, you could tell the L2L team had been studing.  The L2L team ended up winning by 2 points!  They have a surprise on Friday at the L2L convention for winning the competition.  They seem ready for the Bible Bowl Competition.

After the Bible Bowl competition we rolled right into the puppet teams.  The 1st and 2nd grade team went first, then the 3rd and 4th grade team, followed by the 5th and 6th grade team, with the 7th and 8th grade team coming next and finished up with the high school puppet team.  They all did great.  It is nice to see it all coming together.

Paul in the evening worship taught an exellent lesson on the parable of the talents.  What a fitting lesson for this evening!  After we finished the worship service we rolled directly into the boys presentation of their speeches, song leading and scripture reading.  Great job to all!  Even the adults responsible for the microphone and not know which mic was going to be used.

Our adult leaders have the kids ready to go!  Only a few more days left.
