Dodgeball

Tonght was our first official youth night since coming back from Furlough. We went around the neighborhood and told the kids that had been coming that we were going to have it again. We had a pretty good group of kids show up, it will take a few weeks to get the word out again.

We are trying to think of fun new games to play each week, so tonight I introduced them to dodgeball. Good idea? I think yes. They loved it! We played it for a good 45 minutes and they really got into it! When it was time to go upstairs for worship and the lesson, they still wanted to play! As soon as the lesson was over, they all went back downstairs and we played some more. It was so fun!

If we are going to play it again though, I think we need to make sure we have plenty of balls. Just tonight two of our best balls got thrown over the fence and are pretty much gone forever. Oh well.

If you have any other ideas for games that we could play for youth group, let me know! I'm thinking about trying Ninja and capture the flag next week...
