In This Edition...Missions Conference - 11/15-11/18 Lost and Found Sale Class Pictures & Picture Retakes We Shouldn't Quit |
Missions Conference Time is HERE!
So many wonderful things happen in November. In some states, snow begins piling up just in time for Thanksgiving. In the South, we sometimes have to break out those summer clothes we just put away. Last weekend. Because it was so cold. And then, because it got so warm, we had to completely tear down the bed because, ya know, those flannel sheets and that thick comforter? WAY too much coziness. November. The time when you turn off the air conditioning just to turn it back on and you change your menu from all casseroles (I'm a Baptist. Casseroles are what I do) to grilling outside. In your basketball shorts. Even the flies get confused. I had one fly inside the house (if there's something I hate, it's flies in my house. I will get violent.) that stopped just inside the door, sat on the floor and waited for me to whack it. Didn't even try to escape.
It sounds like I'm complaining, but I'm not. All the above aside, November is a great time of year. Pumpkins, family, turkeys, dressing, and Missions Conference here at Franklin Road Baptist Church. Join us November 15th through the 18th to hear what the Lord has put on the hearts of missionaries that are going to exotic lands like, Nigeria, Ireland, and, wait for it...Burlington, Virginia. Yes. Even America needs missionaries that are willing to give up time with their families to go tell the greatest Good News mankind will ever hear.
Lost and Found
Last week, I was supposed to announce that we were having a lost and found sale. Because it was the beginning of a new month, and me, being the weirdo I am, likes to do things around the same time so we can count on it happening. Yea. I dropped the proverbial ball.
Being the ball-dropper I am, let's just go ahead and plan on having the Lost and Found sale November 18th through the 20th. So bring your George Washingtons and hit up the tables. You know where they are. In the front of the gym. Laden with things from lunchboxes with a month old sandwich still inside (oh what a treasure, right?! ew) to jackets, PE clothes (always in abundance), to shoes and whatever. I'm pretty confident you'll find something interesting.
Just if you get a lunchbox with a sandwich inside, please throw the sandwich away while holding your breath. Don't ask me how I know this is a good idea. My whole life flashed before my eyes when I forgot that part once. It wasn't pretty and there was a spectacle.
Class Pictures & Picture Retakes
Sometimes I have visitors in the office. And they like to take out the yearbooks from previous years and peruse the various pages inside. I hear things like, "Is that Mr. Montgomery? Wasn't he here, like, just, like, a few years ago? Did he even, like, have time to graduate? He looks the same! Isn't there, like, a law against that?" (Yes. I hear some pretty funny conversations from kids in that office) and "Awww, look at how small I was in preschool! I was soooooo cute" to "Hey guys, look. That's Mr. Stanczak. He looks the same..." and they look up at me for confirmation.
Those yearbooks are kind of like a Hall of Fame for future generations. So guys, make sure you look spiffy and girls, get your hair just right, because Monday the 16th, it's Your Turn to be added to the FRCS annals of fame.
Didn't like the first go-round? Did you finally smile big enough and all you notice is lettuce stuck between your two front teeth? Did you forget it was picture day and mistake it for pajama day and look completely out of place? Or did you join the ranks of FRCS a little late and miss the first picture day?
Then come prepared to wow us all with your lettuce-free cuteness on November 16th.
We Shouldn't Quit
101 Random
Answers to last week's conundrums:
There
have been many amendments in the U.S. Constitution during the last 100
years. One of the most controversial items regards the transfer of power
should one of the heads of state die while in office. If the
Vice-President of the United States, and the Speaker of the House of
Representatives should die while in office, who then becomes President? The President is still the President because he didn't die. He was sad that all those people died, but, still. He was alive.

Think you know the answers? You know the drill. Come into the office and give it a try for a piece of candy. Don't eat candy? Let me know, and I'll bring brussels sprouts.
BONUS!
Somewhere on this Parent Page, there are two secret messages. Think you found one? Come into the office and tell me what you think it is. If you're right, you'll double your candy prize. ;) Be warned, it is very difficult to find.
