It was a busy month at church for us – in a very social way. We had church pictorial pictures to take. We rarely take a family picture. It is something I think we should do more often, but we don’t take the time (or the money) to get a professional picture taken. While this is more posed than I may like, it is good to have. The girls were so excited to get dressed up for their picture. I snapped one of them before we left.
The next day, we headed to the annual Salem outing to see the Akron RubberDucks play some baseball. It is a good time. This year, we had 36 people! And the weather was absolutely perfect. Usually, we try to get to an Indians game as a family, too, but that hasn’t happened this year. So, for now, we will just call this enough.
The following weekend, our Sunday school class got together. We are going to try to get together once a quarter to hang out, get to know each other, and build relationships. This is our second time, and I think we all had a great time. There are a lot of kids, and they all played so well together. We adults could sit and watch and catch up. Plus the weather cooperated for us!
Finally, the church has started playing ultimate frisbee football every Sunday night. It has been a long time since I played – my college years, I think. I loved playing then. I love playing now. I was much more agile then. I am at least still moving now. It is a great way to get a run in, bond with people ages 9-40ish, and brush up my frisbee skills.
I am so glad for all the opportunities that we have had outside of church to be together. I think the more we encourage each other just through sharing life, the stronger the body of Christ is. So, bring on the fun!
