An Amusing Sight!
Use as an Icebreaker.
Ron, Billy, a Dodge Truck and a Red Lawnmower
Humorous story, in which you can change the names to fit a couple of guys from your congregation.

All I really need to know I learned in kindergarten.
All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate-school mountain, but there in the sandpile at Sunday School. These are the things I learned. Share

Instructor is always there
Lightly guiding you

Last night I failed.
I prayed for more strength,

So dirty inside.
He’s taken my heart;
