This past Friday night for youth, our youth group had What in the Word, aka.... Bible Study. We just want to sound sophisticated, so we say 'What in the Word':)
David Jensby talked to us about the first Thanksgiving and how the pilgrims came over on the Mayflower and so on. Then Shelby Tucker gave us a time line of how Thanksgiving has become a national holiday. It had important dates throughout history that has made Thanksgiving what it is today. Next, Bro. Short taught on why we should truly be thankful for all we have. Even, the smallest things, we should be thankful for. His main point was to be thankful even in the hard times, when things aren't going our way.
After the Bible study, we played Bible Trivia. Of course... the GIRLS won. I think the final score was like 2400 to 600.... haha. We know who's been reading their Bibles;)
Next we ate pie... yes, I picked chocolate pie:) Then, us girls messed around and played different little games, while the guys just sat there and made fun of us. The girls from the Spanish outreach taught us a fun new game.... but it required us all to hold hands. We used spoons instead.
Of course.... below are some pics.

The new game. Tyler was told he would have to hold my hand... he offered his shoe instead. lol
More of this new game... notice the spoon Kristen and Tyler are holding. lol
