The Washington State History Museum is where fascination and FUN come together! People of all ages can explore and be entertained in an environment where characters from Washington's past speak about their lives. Through interactive exhibits, theatrical storytelling, high-tech displays and dramatic artifacts, learn about our state's unique people and places, as well as their impact on the country and the world.

The History Museum is a fun and very memorable experience. If you have already gone, find someone who hasn't and go with them! 

The museum is open from 10-5

and its only $6.00 to go for a student!

The best location to watch the laser show is from the visitor center at the dam and from the park below the visitor center. An outdoor sound system is provided.

Hope your weekend was awesome.

Lets make this a great Monday!

Its not too late to go out and help someone today. 

Take a look at our Service Project Page .
There are so many opportunities to serve others available to us. 

Make a few sandwiches and hand them to someone you see while driving today. 
Make it a mission to help someone today that you know needs help.
When you get your Starbucks, buy an extra and hand it to someone you see that is needy or stop by and bless a friend that might be having a rough week....

Pray that God will give you an opportunity to serve and I know that He will! 
Let me know what kinds of things you and your friends do! 

Psalm 82:4
Rescue the weak and needy; 
Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

You may be the only bible others get to read. Lets be a light to the world around us every day.

Happy Sunday!

(So glad its not raining...)

Romans 12:10 "Be devoted to each other like a loving family.

 Excel in showing respect for eachother."

How is your family life? Are you caring for others; respecting them? In order to have relationships with others and family that are taught to us throught the Bible, we need to create an atmosphere that welcomes, reaches out to, and includes others.

1 Thessalonians 5:14 (MSG): "Gently encourage the stragglers, and reach out for the exhausted, pulling them to their feet. Be patient with each person, attentive to individual needs."

When we connect with others we grow to new levels and become more and more Christ-like.

Romans 12:5 "In the same way, eventhough we are many individuals, Christ makes us one body and individuals who are connected to eachother."

Take today to spend time with a family member that you might not have cared for as well as you  could have, or would have, or should have. Maybe call up an old friend or someone from youth group and share a meal together. Spen some time catching up or playing games. Spend some time in the word and maybe rent a movie!

There are many great Christian movie on netflix and at the local rental place as well! For you girls you could go get a pedicure, and get you toes ready for some sunny weather ahead (hopefully). And Boys there are some fun batting cages, or disc golf courses as well... Not that you can't get your toes done too! (you might like a nice pedicure... you know your feet could use a massage)

Make it a blessed day and have fun in fellowship with family!

June 23
Today it is supposed to be 61 degrees  and Partly Cloudy.

That doesn't sound half bad! 

Still a nice day for a picnic indoor or outdoor! 

Get creative, who says you can't have a picnic inside if it is rainy, pick a spot with a window or a great view and share some snacks and sandwiches on a fun blanket. 

There are some great parks in town that have some covered areas with picnic benches as well, the possibilities are endless! 

Get your friends together for a fun picnic, have everyone bring a fun snack to share!

 

Some Fun Picnic Bring-Along Must Haves! 

1. Bring your Bible or a devotional to discuss together as you break bread

2. A camera! (take pictures and load them onto our Facebook page and we will share them! 

3. A Cozy Blanket to snuggle up with as well as one to sit on. it might get chilly so throw in a few extra to just in case, oh and an umbrella as well!

4. Snack Ideas: pretzels, chips, cheese, crackers, fruit (strawberries, melon slices, grapes, etc)

5. A great Sandwich, or two! Make a couple extra to give away to someone in need on the way that you may see at the park or on your way home. 

6. Yummy drinks; Jones Sodas are fun to drink and easy to carry along, water bottles,  Gatorade, Capri-Sun, Arizona Tea, and lots of other portable drinks are great for picnics.

7. Utensils and napkins; don't forget forks and knives or spoons if you bring a yummy dessert! try to bring plastic utensils though, it is just one less thing to remember to bring home and not accidentally throw away! 

8. Don't forget a set of playing cards, bubbles or even a Frisbee, football, soccer, etc!
