Bible Bowl Competition

We travelled to Lexington today for our first Bible Bowl competition of the season. We have two upper division teams and one beginner team this year. Our text is the book of John; 1, 2, 3 John; and 1, 2 Peter for the upper division and the book of John for the beginners.

We are very proud of our teams. They represented New Life well today and all their hard work and study really paid off. In the upper division New Life A had a record of 5 wins and 1 loss and placed third (they were only 10 points behind the 2nd place team) and New Life B had a record of 4 wins and 2 losses (their losses were to the 1st and 2nd place team) and they were only a few points behind the third place team.

Our beginners really did awesome (of course, as their coach I'm somewhat partial)! The beginner division in Lexington is VERY competitive and our kids really came to play today. They had a record of 5 wins and 2 losses and both of their losses were by a very small margin. In both cases they were neck and neck until the 13th question (there are only 15 questions in a game). I'm so proud of Austin, Dustin, Nate and Jacob that I could bust!

Congrats to all the New Life Bible Bowlers. If you see these guys be sure to give them a pat on the back.
