Bible Bowl 2017!

AWESOME! That is the word that best describes Bible Bowl

each year. When young people dedicate several months of

serious study to God’s Word, only good things can come

about. We are very happy to have so much support from

many congregations as we host this annual event. It is also

good to see friends from various congregations that have

been made throughout the years. Page three contains more

information about Bible Bowl that you will want to see.

Thanks to all our Weber Road volunteers who put in a lot

of time and effort to help. Well over 80 Weber Road members

of all talents and abilities assisted us with Bible Bowl this

year. Jobs included teaching classes, set-up, serving lunch,

clean-up, registration, coordinating games after lunch,

picking up supplies, monitoring tests, grading tests, scoring

tests for placement in awards, security, picture taking,

coordinating t-shirts, etc. Dozens of Weber Road members

helped to make our 34th annual Bible Bowl run efficiently.

THANK YOU!

Next year’s Bible Bowl will be over Galatians, Ephesians,

Philippians and Colossians! It will be on Saturday, November

3, 2018. Plan to be there!
