The Lost Shall be Found

Me on a very crowded Amtrak train

I recently lost my camera. I cleaned out three cars, straightened my room, called the friend I had visited to see if I’d left it there, suffice to say, in the course of two weeks I looked everywhere. No dice, the only thing I could find was my spare battery. I didn’t start to worry until 3 days before heading down south to go to a wedding and see some friends I hadn’t seen in twoish years. Then I remembered my blog about Mueller, and decided a specific prayer was in order.  So I prayed, and a day before my train got my sister’s to pray. 

The prayer was that I would find my camera before I left. Around 9:30, night before above mentioned train I started to pack, pulled out my backpack and realize it felt a little heavy. Wondering I peered in and sure enough, there was my camera. Sitting there, waiting for me to take the trip. I swear I had looked there, but I must not have. I don’t know how I missed the weight when hanging my backpack up, but I did.  A lost camera seems like a silly thing to pray about, but maybe I needed a reminder to talk to God, maybe I need to see a specific prayer answered, I really don’t know, I’m just glad I have my camera. I was so excited I called my sister and pretended to be the butt of a blond joke.

 Which leads me to a question(s) that is in no way related to my story.  And since my known consistent fan base consists of best friends and relatives, I may not get any responses to my question(s). But that’s alright, I was surprised with the camera, maybe I’ll be astounded with this. They are question(s) for those who grew up in the Church. If you didn’t that’s ok, I’m not opposed to people weighing in with observations.

1      1)  What do you remember most about church kid programs?

                2)  What sorts of programs did you participate in?

          3) Where there specific things that helped you learn, or remember best?

          4)  Is there anything you wished for as a kid? (Or now). Oh and that’s wished for in regards to the programs, not like childhood toy wish list.

         5) What are some strengths of the programs you attended or have been involved in?

         6) What are some weaknesses?

7           7) What do you think is the point of kid church programs?

         8) What do you think is the key to creating the most awesome, amazing, fantastic program?

      Ok, so I guess it was questions after all. I don’t really expect anyone to answer all eight, but if you have thoughts on one you’re willing to share, just put the number then your insight. This is not for a class, I’m just trying to sort some stuff in la cabeza. Regardless, feel free to pass this around to any friends, family or acquaintances you think might have “views”. 

      Now to find a way make this look less boring. My picture should do the trick.
