Church Winter Olympics

Remember this year’s Winter Olympics? For 16 days or so, our TV screens were red with ice, snow and, well, more ice and snow. Here are some fun, interesting and often challenging Winter Olympic events that you will find in most local churches.

Short Track: Sunday School Kids running through the halls and then bump into the teacher.

Compulsory Dance: The same kids dodging pews and little old ladies to get to the cookies after church.

Half Pike: The kids who can crawl under the pews to get to the cookies.

Curling: What people do while they snooze during a sermon

Skeleton: What the body of Christ looks like when people skip church.

Four Man Bobsaid; Guys who stand around after church talking about the sermon.

Speed skating: What we do around a topic of conversation when we have gossiped a bit to much about the person we are talking with.

Ski Jump: Some of the conclusions we draw as a result of that gossip

Downhill: Where people’s lives have to go before they think to pray

Luge: Rhymes with the amount of blessings you get when you give to God.

Cross Country: Where some of our missionaries go, like Dave and Cynde Norberg and family who return from Trinidad and are going with our Mexico Team this summer.

Gold Medal: What we get in heaven when we are faithful to our Lord here on earth.
