The NEOS Fellowship Center: Outland Adventure/Jan 2011

Outland Adventure/Jan 2011

On January 8, 2011, the NEOS staff and volunteers spent the day at Outland Adventure in Davao City. Outland Adventure is a ropes course that teaches teamwork and obedience and responsibility.

It gave the staff and volunteers a wonderful day away from school and work to just relax and enjoy.

Esther and DeeAnn on the ropes course. It was DeeAnn's first time. Esther enjoyed it so much that she wanted to do it again.

Steven on the 'earthquake' waiting to move on to the next challenge.

   One of the groups discussing how to make application to their lives after doing one of the challenges.

   One thing we learned is to never point blame to others and to take responsibility for our own actions.

   We go to Outland Adventure every January. So, we look forward to going again next year. Anyone want to join us? Come on down, or should I say over? Just come!!!

The NEOS Bible Curriculum For All Ages

Valerie is now writing Sunday school material. It is chronological in that it begins with Genesis and the story of Creation. The series will eventually cover the entire Bible. Each book will cover a small part of God's Word. The books come complete with visuals, lesson plans, teaching instructions, games, review questions, exams, and in every few books there is even a complete Vacation Bible School.

Valerie now has four titles published in her series, The NEOS Bible Curriculum For All Ages.

Book 1: Creation to Cain and Abel (with VBS)

Book 2: Noah to Abraham
Book 3: Isaac and Jacob

Book 4: Joseph (with VBS)

All four books are now available in the USA and in the Philippines. These four books together are the complete book of Genesis in the Bible.

You may email Valerie through the Commission for Every Nation website to ask for details as to how you may purchase the books. Please put NEOS Books in the subject line of your email.

Thank you.
