They say that a picture is worth a thousand words and this image I think shows more about how Caleb was feeling this weekend than he could put into words…

A Long Bike Ride To Calgary Christian School
One day me, my Dad and my sister went for a bike ride to my school. It took 52 KM there and back! It felt like it was as long as the whole city! It took the whole day.
First we started at our house, then we went to Fish Creek Park where I threw up. I was kind of scared at Fish Creek Park because we went gravel. I slipped a couple of times but I didn’t fall or hurt myself.
We needed to go up hills and down. When we got to the top of a hill, I felt sick holding Dad’s bike.
We went to the washroom’s, and then the biking continued. After we got to the top of a hill, we stopped at a bench to have a drink of water. After we had a drink, then we started again. I felt really excited to get to my school.
The next park was Glenmore Park, it felt like the longest park. When we got out of the park, we rode on the road to my school. Then we went over a big bridge. When we got across, I tripped on a bump and fell down and hurt myself. So we went to 7-Eleven to buy band aids.
Then we finally reached my school.
We had lunch and played on the playground at the school. After we started to head home.
When we got home I was sweating like a big fat pig. I had a nice clean shower and I smelt a lot better.
Then it was dinner time, it was a delicious. Then I went to bed. I fell asleep really fast.
The End…
Caleb Reads 1 Corinthians 15: 51-57
A couple of weeks ago Caleb was asked to read a verse at church as part of the service. There are some pretty big words in the verse, so he spent quite a few nights practising reading the verse, 1 Corinthians 15: 51-57.
We broke with our usual habit of sitting near the back of church so that he could head up in the middle of worship to speak. He did a great job, and you can see it for yourself…
Here is the verse so you can read it for yourself:
Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed — in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”
“Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?”The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Our church in Calgary is South Calgary Community Church. They have an English service, Russian service and Brazilian / Portuguese service every Sunday and have a kids program that our children love.
