REMINDER: Bible Bee signups due by April 30!

We have received another e-mail from our local Bible Bee chairman who has asked us to remind you that signups for the National Bible Bee are due by April 30. You must participate in the local Bible Bee in order to be eligible for the national one.

April is the Last Month to Sign Up for the 2009 National Bible Bee. April 30th is the deadline...

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.

We strongly recommend quizzers look into this as they are already well-prepared to study and quiz on scripture. And since this is a Bible Bee, jumping speed will not be a factor. To sign up click here.

Please be aware that the local Bee will be the same weekend as the Senior High Fall Retreat. Prayerfully consider which event the Lord would have you attend.
