The Punniest Pairing

Hi guys this week’s blog is from Jacob Joe and Nathan Pun. As the prayer leader and the prayer leader's pairing, we decided to tell you stories from our past and connect with prayer request that you should pray for. Also, make sure you read all the way to the end.

Fondest Church Memory

Nathan: My fondest church memory was 2 years ago when I was in 8^th grade and we had to run the maze for autumn festival. We made the maze very short, but it was pitch black with only a strobe light and wall that we were able to walk through. We also had Dylan Che dress up as slender man, which looked pretty real. As you can imagine, with Dylan as slender man and walls that we can walk through, the maze was horrifying. I won’t go into too much detail with the rest of the maze, but we made it a bit too scary. We made a couple kids cry.

Jacob: My one of the fondest moments for church for me was during Hi Koi. The Senior Honor Nights, now I pulling photos from my archive of FB photos of past themes. 

Theme: Mary Poppins

We were the Chimney Men lol

 

Theme: Bon Voyage

Theme: Super Smash Bros

I’m an Ice Climber

Prayer Request: Pray for the children at our church. Pray for their spiritual growth and that they will have a stable foundation in God.

Favorite Camp or Wire Memory

Jacob: I’ll choose a WiRe memory… now, as you may know and I’m not the greatest writer in developing imagery and background information so I’ll answer with pictures, because a picture is worth a thousand words.

I’ll leave you with a picture of one time we had prime rib, now we all know the end pieces are the best because of the skin…so we got a little excited. I think my expression shows how delicious it was, 

Nathan: My memory is also from WiRe. Since I have only gone to WiRe once, you could guess when this was. This was the first time my grade actually started talking to each other and hanging out WITH OUT BEING FORCED TO!!!!!! Whoa. I know. It was a big accomplishment for us. But, it was great seeing most of my grade just playing around at the playground and talking to each other for the first time.

Prayer Request: Pray for WiRe which will be coming up soon. Pray for good planning and that the speaker would really impact all of us.

Favorite High School Memory

Nathan: Drum line. I have to say my favorite memories from last year were from drum line. I love to perform in front of people and just doing something that is different. I remember just hanging out with my friends, talking, eating and sweating. There was a lot of practice involved, but it paid off because we got third place out of all of Southern California. Hopefully I can make even more memories this year performing in front of more people.

There are a lot of people in this picture, but that’s alright because I’m in the front.

Jacob: Cross Country and Track. Whether one would call running a sport, Cross Country and Track were my sports for 4 years. Now throughout my archives of photos, I couldn't find the defining photo of me on my sprinting form. As I would be coming in on the home stretch, people would always think I’d pass out because I would move my short arms moving like t-rex. Tilt my head to the left and looking up. Eyes would roll back. Terrible form, but I love the last 100 meters of a long distance race. 

Here’s a picture of my marvelous running face. 

Prayer Request: Pray for all the non-Christians at your school. Pray that you could show your friends who God is. Also, pray that you would be a stable Christian at school even when people start to question you.

What do you like to do?

Jacob: Sports. Anything really, watching or playing I just love every aspect of it. The strategy that comes into play, the techniques the athlete has to make the most efficient moves, and the disciple that is necessary that leads for success. If you want to talk about what sport you do, or debate about professional sports I am down to talk about it with you!

Nathan: Reading. I know that sounds weird, but I love reading when I’m bored. I also like to play pokémon. Pokémon is the best. I can’t wait for pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to come out. I know I sound like a nerd, but I love pokémon, not the show but the video game. What else do I like to do hmmmmm……. Oh I know. I like to sleep and eat, which is what most of my grade does anyways.

Prayer Request: Pray over your hobbies. Pray that you would praise God in everything you do and that you would spend some time with God instead of doing what you like to do.
