CSB Battalion 6468 at Chapelgate

The Christian Service Brigade Battalion program is for young men in the 7th - 12th grades who want to develop as Christian leaders through fun and adventure. Weekly meetings are punctuated by monthly trips to experience God's creation, serve others, and discover new interests. Planning and preparation are shared by student and adult leaders to learn and exercise leadership skills in a variety of activities and settings. Above all, the Lordship of Jesus Christ is acknowledged. The gospel is woven throughout everything we do. To God be the glory.

From October 20th

Hi all,
How have you liked the Backyard Ballistics unit? I think Lt. Tallman and Lt. Clark have done a great job showing us a variety of interesting ways to launch potatoes and other assorted vegetables. Also, I need to give a big shout out to Carl and Anthony for a great presentation of their pneumatic potatoe chucker last week. They went all out and it showed. Great project! Remember, next week we will work on the marshmallow shooters and the next week will be our test so study your verse (Hebrews 4:14-15). Here are some links to websites Lt. Tallman talked about if you've got the urge for a neat home project. http://www.siege-engine.com/ and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jolYDinb_50# Last but not least, here is the link to Lt. Lutz's illustration from his very excellent CR. Let it remind you that it matters very much what we fix our eyes on. http://illusioncontest.neuralcorrelate.com/2009/the-break-of-the-curveball/
Canoe Trip Update: We got tested hard with the weather this past weekend so the canoe trip didn't get completed as we had hoped. But, the area is very beautiful and a great trip so we may plan to do it again in the spring. Stay tuned.

Blessings,
Captain Hayden
