(I am actually going to talk about myself… hope it’s not too boring… he he)

Well, the Bible Bee local contest just finished! Suffice to say, I believe I did well. We will see. I think I have a good chance of qualifying in the top 100 15-18 year olds to compete in Washington D.C. We shall see very soon (probably in a couple of days, but definitely by Friday the 18th)!!! Thank you all for supporting me in this, I have felt so encouraged by everyone. I am thankful I got to be a witness of excellence and diligence at the contest. It was kind of funny. By the time I got there with Samuel Hood, Ellen Hackett, and Chauntelle Hall, the whole place already knew who I was because of how I helped them sort out discrepancies within the passages for the NASB version of the quiz cards. The judges and coordinators were all impressed by me and were even blessed at how I had a smile when quoting the Word (Jer. 15:16). One judge even said she “got on fire again” when I was speaking. She even wants me to come and share my heart with the choir she directs at the Presbyterian church! I love the church! I love home-schoolers. I love every kid who came to compete in that place. They had such a passion for the Word and we all got to hang out and talk about it. Today was fun.
