Hemafton-Pentathlon

Monday 17 Sept.

We started off with a spiritual thought for the evening. Oscar shared as we have trials in our lives, we ought to have our sight on Christ. We all do mistakes like at our place of employment, and come to our boss and ask for assistance or a solution. He paralleled that with our lives and to Christ since we all fall short of perfection. We should always lean on our Saviour for support and communicate in prayer with our Heavenly Father.

The activity portion was a Greek styled Olympic event known as a pentathlon held by Isak. Everyone wore togas and stuff. Just kidding. Though we did not wrestle and throw javelins which would've been way fun, we did other events instead. Everyone was divided up into two teams of six. We started off spinning around an innebandy stick a dozen times and ran to the end of the court and back. Next we ran back and forth with a pear on a spoon positioned in our mouth. After that, we did the potato sack race with garbage bags. Next to last, we did the classic three-legged race. To finish things off, we played a version of dodgeball. It's always nice to get the body going. :=)

As always we finished off with fika by courtesy of Kitzia. Fantastic fruit was finely cut into cubed bite-sized pieces to be ready for devouring. To add a bit of yumminess to the refreshing dessert a dollop of vanilla ice cream would be placed adjacent to it. The experience was ummms good!
Thank you everybody for coming, participating and having a good time! Laters ya'll!
