IMPORTANT: April 30th is last day to sign up for the Bible Bee

This is the LAST WEEK to sign up for the Bible Bee, and April 30th (Thursday) is the last day. If you want to sign up. this is the link. This is NOT an official Quiz Team activity, but several quizzers have already signed up, so you would not be alone.

The National Bible Bee is open to everyone 7-18 (as of Nov. 6, 2009). The local round will be held September 12th in Westport, and the winners will advance to the nationals in Washington D.C. A study guide will be available May 1, and it will provide a great opportunity for families to spend time together in preparation talking about what the bible says.

And by the way – it is not all from rote memory, most of it is multiple choice – so kids don’t have to worry about freezing up and being eliminated. There will be many questions which are general knowledge (not tied to a specific verse) and about what it means to be Christian. This will be a very friendly, supportive, and confidence building event.

Right now there are less than 7,000 registrations nationwide. Since the top 300 finalists will be going to the nationals, there is a very good chance of advancing to the finals where you can win the $25,000 to $100,000 prizes. But remember, everyone who participates and learns the Word of God recieves a blessing even greater.
