When we walked into the church this morning the white tablecloth reminded us it was time for the Lord's Supper during church service.
Sabbath School came first and we were reminded to Keep Our Eyes on Jesus with the opening hymn of #290 Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus. Dave had our opening prayer and then came the welcome/theme...
Our new teacher at the academy for grades 3 and 4, Karenda Swain, wrote the answers to the question, " What games do you play using a ball".
Welcome to OCC, Karenda. It is great to have you here.

| Thanks, Karenda. |
The idea in all of these sports is to keep your eye on the ball. It is like that in our lives too. We need to keep our eyes on Jesus all day, every day.
The story was shared about Peter asking to walk to meet Jesus on the water. He was fine and walking well until he thought about himself or others and forgot to keep his eyes focused on Jesus.
Dave L had the lesson discussion and and Lori lead it downstairs for the other classroom. Children were in the older Kid's Corner and in the younger Kid's Corner too.

Gerry had the children's story and used coloured spots on his had to explain about stains. We can remove some of the stains from our hands but not all and not the ones on our hearts... that is a job for Jesus and He does wash us clean.

| So lovely to see Diane and Eldon share the piano seat. We sure do enjoy the lovely music Diane creates for us many Sabbaths. So thankful for the fine example of Diane and Eldon in their dedication to being at church each week and being on time. |
 |
| So nice to hear the trombone music each week. |
