Cluedo and Trivia

We have had a very fun and exciting weekend! Every Friday night we have youth and it always has a theme. This weekend we played Cluedo or in the US we would call it Clue. You know...the game with Colonel Mustard, Mrs. Plum and the rest of the crew?? We decided to get some adults from the church involved in youth group and asked for some volunteers to be the "suspects" in our murder mystery. We had so many willing volunteers! Below is a picture of all of them!

We had a nurse, doctor, truck driver, teacher, butler, maid, housewife, farmer, gardener and singer. Then, the students had to go around asking questions to figure out the murderer, motive, weapon, place and day of the murder. We had a record number of students and we all had a great time! Only 3 out of 27 students were able to solve the mystery!

Last night was also a great night! We had a Trivia Night at our church to raise money for Chaplaincy. Each state (public) school has a Chaplain and they are there for students to come and talk to. They are not allowed to teach students about Christianity unless students ask questions. They are like a counselor. The Trivia Night was held to raise money for Chaplaincy so they can buy more resources and programs to help the students more effectively. It was a great family night and over $1,200 was raised! Our team came in 3rd place and we were behind the 1st place team by only 1.5 points! Sean and I were also in charge of the games in between the Trivia question sets. We played Minute To Win It games and had a great time!

We've had a few requests to see pictures of our church so here are a few :)
