Flag-Football

Saturday, Jan. 24 HPBC is hosting a flag-football game between the student ministry and the adults. I am very excited about this because, in my man-ness, I enjoy a good game with the possibility of collisions and concussions. I realize that flag-football is supposed to limit the contact between players, but there are always ways around this rule.

This began as a friendly competition between two generations, but has blown (hopefully) into a full-on church-wide event. There will be hot dogs, chips and drinks, and the aforementioned collisions. We even have a real referee coming out to call the game.

The build-up to this game has been ferocious, with even our pastor getting in on the trash-talk. It will certainly be a spectacle, possibly a debacle or some other kind of "-acle," but will definitely be entertaining. Come one, come all. Witness what happens when two generations of believers take (illegal) shots at one another on a grassy field (without knolls).
