Celebrate summer by being creative

On a warm Saturday in June 2017

Pebble art, 

rock scriptures,

tic-tac-toe, 

beach balls,

ice-breaker questions,

games, food, fellowship, 

and the Word of God.

And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Colossians 3:17

... Might have gotten a bit carried away in the prep...

We all know we are made in the image of God. 

The first thing we read about God is he created! 

Therefore we all have some creative gene in us too! 

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.Genesis 1:1 
So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; Genesis 1:27 

we had a great time getting creative... on the cheap!

Just sayin'
Summer comes early here.
 In Zagreb, this month of May brought increasingly hot days, lots of humidity with (almost) daily thundershowers and crazy lighting shows. As I write, it is late afternoon, 84F and I can hear the thunder in the distance.
(Just took in my laundry:)
Tonight the sun doesn't set until 20:35 and then it raises at 5:09 tomorrow. On average it is about 1/2 hour extra daylight and at least 10 degrees warmer than the Cape.

FYI: Over the course of May in Zagreb, from the start to the end of the month, the length of the day increases by 1 hour, 8 minutes, implying an average weekly increase of 15 minutes, 49 seconds. The shortest day, May 1, with 14 hours, 20 minutes of daylight and the longest day is May 31, with 15 hours, 27 minutes of daylight. The latest sunrise of the month in Zagreb is 5:43 AM on May 1 and the earliest sunrise is 34 minutes earlier at 5:10 AM on May 31. The earliest sunset is 8:03 PM on May 1 and the latest sunset is 34 minutes later at 8:37 PM on May 31. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between night and day, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while the temperature may drop at night, a muggy day is typically followed by a muggy night. The chance that a given day will be muggy in Zagreb is essentially constant during May...the typical weather in Zagreb year-round, based on a statistical analysis... from weatherspark.com and timeanddate.com
