The Benson Five

Last Sunday, Anna Grace had a big day at church. She has been preparing to go to the Lads to Leaders convention in Nashville, TN. Lads to Leaders is a a program that help youth develop strong leadership skills for the future. This is Anna Grace's first year to compete so we kept it simple. She signed up for Oral Bible Reading and Puppets. For those of you that know Anna Grace, know that she is a very bright and talented young lady, but also very shy. We are excited about her being a part of Lads to Leaders so that she can shine in areas that she feels comfortable and it helps her to become closer to the Lord. Anyways, last Sunday, the young ladies our church did a service for the ladies of the congregation. Anna Grace read a bible scripture. The scripture that we chose was I John 4:7-16. This was a simple verse that talks about the importance of loving one another and it was simple for her to understand. My mom and sister also came to see her. Sunday night, the third graders did their puppet skit for the congregation. MiMi and Papaw (my mom and dad) also came to watch. We are so proud of her! Here are some pictures from the day.
