Thank you for “stepping up” during the
first 3 weeks of STEP UP TO THE
PLATE. Over 200 of you have made
commitments to be in Sunday School for
6 Sundays or more during the summer.
Attendance has been strong in June.
June 7 - 427
June 13 - 404
June 21 - 412
The competition in all four age divisions
is hotter than the interior of a car left in
the hot sun all day. The winners will be
those teams/groups who can keep a
consistent good attendance and who have
members inviting and bringing new
people to be a part of their group. There
are no “breakaways” in any division.
Keep “stepping up!” Here are the
standings after week 3.
ADULT
Lovelace Group - 2 wins
Living Stones - 1 win
YOUTH
Brave Tigers - 2 wins
9th-10th Grade - 1 win
CHILDREN
3rd Grade Angels - 1.5 wins
2nd Grade Angels - 1 win
5th Grade - 0.5 win
PRESCHOOL
Four Year Olds - 2 wins
Three Year Olds - 1 win
I want to issue a challenge to our Sunday
School groups to help us maintain a 400
average attendance until August 9th.
Encourage your group members to be
faithful in their participation in Sunday
School over the Summer. If we all
STEP UP we can make this a great
Summer at Burkemont.
