Truth Baptist Church
Consider the Ant!
Greetings parents and
teenagers of Truth
Baptist Church.
Summer is in full swing
now! This is the time
of the year you have all
been looking forward
to! School is out and
the sun is out! I’m sure
you have some exciting summer plans
in place for this year, but if you are like
most young people, somehow summer
gets…..well…...boring!
Young person, the extra time you now
have should not be simply wasted away!
If you find yourself already getting
bored, and not putting yourself to any
good use...then realize that you are in a
dangerous predicament! You are idle,
and your mind and heart are not active
like they were designed
to be! One preacher
put it this way, “an idle
mind is the Devil’s
workshop!” Use your
mind and time for the
glory of God! Spend
this summer drawing
closer to Him.
Determine to spend
more time in your devotions with the
Lord, more time in our Bible, more
time in prayer, and more time than ever
in serving Him through your local
church and youth group!
I hope you are signed up for camp! This first
week in August will be a big week for us all as
we trust that God will speak to us and challenge us from all the preaching we will be under. I can’t wait!
I pray you stay busy serving Jesus!
Summer Youth Camp Testimonies 2016
Each year God uses our week at camp to bring us closer to each other, but
more importantly, closer to our Savior. It is my desire to see each and every
camper make a commitment to attend the evening service on Sunday, August
7th. Hannah and I would be glad to help you in preparation to give your
testimony that night. We know that God will use each of you as you share
what God does in your hearts and lives.
“And when they were come, and had gathered the church together,
they rehearsed all that God had done with them…” Acts 14:27

Ellie’s Etiquette (In Hong Kong)



To beckon someone, extend your arm, palm down, and
make a scratching motion with your fingers.
Note that Hong Kong Chinese handshakes may be less
firm than a Western handshake.
Family members are greeted in order of age, oldest first
and youngest last.
Chinese names have two parts: family name and given
name. The family name comes first. (i.e. Hastings Erik)
 Hong Kong Chinese may
stand close when talking, however, they are reserved and uncomfortable with body contact.
 Never point with your index
finger. This is used only for animals. Point with your hand open.

 No matter how big and bad you are, when a 2
year old hands you a toy phone, you better answer it!
 Be sure to taste your words before you
spit them out.

tomato is a fruit; Wisdom is not putting it
in a fruit salad.
The odds of going to the store for a loaf
of bread and coming out with only a loaf
of bread are three billion to one.
If you have a frownie, get a brownie.
 In a barber shop with
only 2 barbers, always choose
the one that has the worst
haircut. (think about it)
