Gospel candelabra

Each Wednesday and Thursday afternoon I have the joy of leading chapel for the little muffins in preschool at St. Peter's. I usually tell the Bible story with some visual aids or an interactive Bible story where they help me act out it out. After that we usually sing some chapel songs. Each child has their favorite song. I know that we will have to sing "Running Over" when so and so raises her hand. I also know that every Thursday afternoon we will sing "This Little Gospel Light of Mine". A classic.
To start off the song, I usually ask everyone to get their "Gospel Lights" out by pointing their pointer finger straight in the air. However, these is one little boy who brings it upon himself to put all five fingers up. Where he got this idea I have no clue.
However, I really like that image. The faith of a child-his love for Jesus is so strong that ONE light can't contain it. He's gotta bust out all FIVE fingers to share his faith. I love that! Praise for this tyke and all the others who just wanna share their Gospel candelabra.

The weekend in Chicago

The weekend in Chicago. Angela (main girl) flew out to Chicago randomly when she found a reasonable priced ticket. I met her at O'Hare where our friend Kenny works as a pilot said he would meet us there as well. It was a great weekend spent laughing A LOT, eating good food including this amazing chocolate cake that Kenny had, a great walk downtown, a show in Chicago, and an adventure in G-Rap.
The man of the weekend.THANKS KENNY FOR EVERYTHING.
Navy Pier (One of the coldest days in Chicago)
Attack of the pink fluffy bridesmaid dresses. The show we went to see was "Tony & Tina's Wedding". An interactive play where we got to meet many of the characters.
Ang & Kristine getting silly with their Willy Wonka glasses in downtown Rockford.
The end of the weekend. It was fantastic!

BUT WAIT.....THERE'S MORE!
