Sunday Morning Impact

I would say this was an average week for Impact. We played a game called "Toe-fencing" where 2 people pair up and they grab one hand. Then they have to try to step on the other person's foot without getting their foot stepped on. It looks like a funny dance when they get going. Ashley won yesterday.
Nathan led worship and did a great job. He did some older songs, and the kids really seemed to enjoy it and have a great time. Our lesson was called "Worthless Worship." It was about times in our lives when we don't feel like God is hearing our prayers or our worship. We used 2 passages, Psalms 33 and Isaiah 1. In these 2 passages it is because of sin that God doesn't accept our worship. Psalms is about David's sin after he committed adultery. Isaiah was about the people going through the motions of worshiping God, but they didn't live it with their lives. They weren't taking care of the widows and the orphans. Instead they were treating them badly.
My small group with the 6th grade boys was above average. We had a good conversation and I think they got the point. We also had an activity where they had to make collages from pictures in magazines. I think they had a good time going through the magazines and cutting out pictures and putting them together on a piece of paper.
I think it was a good week, and the kids were able to take something away with them.
