Art Rorheim (founder of Awana) is a big fan & support of New Tribes (& has been around since it's beginnings in 1942). He stopped by our booth to say hi & we snagged this picture. Art has been a hero of mine & a great influence on my life all these years through the Awana ministry! Thanks Art, for your labor in the Lord!!
This is Joel Culberson, a good friend & Awana Missionary from Kansas. He organized the Awana games.
Here are the games. I got to talk with a lot of students & cheer for a few teams. This year there were around 40 teams from all over the US!!
This is my buddy Caleb who came with his team from Colorado. We're in the general session (there are 4 general sessions this weekend) where different speakers are challenging the students & leaders to Serve the Lord with their lives.
Here's about 3/4 of the audience in the general session.
Arlyn & Marcy Nies (Awana Missionaries from North Dakota) were my team leaders when I went to Zimbabwe back in 2001. They organized the Awana Bible Quiz for this year's Summit.
Here are some teams competing in a preliminary round of the Bible Quiz. There are multiple rounds where teams are eliminated & tonight the top 10 teams from all over the US will compete in the Platinum Round!

Hi Josh! Great to see you have such a great connection with Awana AND NTM. I think that's awesome. God really maps out our lives doesn't he?
Love the pic with Arlyn and Marcy- I think of them often and wondered what they are up to these days. :-)
Keep on with the updates!
