CONFIRMATION
Confirmation Kids Commercialize Soup Supper – Challenge Other
Groups to Compete! Because the commercials are always a
highlight at our Lenten Soup Suppers (“It’s a real hot item, Jerry’s
Bread!”), this year the DLC confirmation mentors and mentees are trying
something new. The February 29th Soup Supper skit will be a “Commercial Competition” – where each
confirmation student will produce and act in a commercial to sell the
audience a Bible. But not just any Bible. Each student
will be touting the features and benefits of his/her own, unique Bible. As
with all advertising, we will take liberties with the truth. (One Bible might
be autographed by Moses. Another might be autographed by Brad Pitt…) At the end of the commercials, the
Soup Supper studio audience will choose the winning Bible salesperson.
Fabulous prizes include leftover soup, cookies and such. Here’s our challenge to other DLC groups: Let’s have a similar “Commercial Competition” for every
Soup Supper this season. We’re looking at you: ·
·
Women’s Circle – Pontificate on your favorite Lutheran Pot Luck recipe!
(A Green Jello vs. Green Bean Casserole throwdown!) ·
Sunday School Kids – Who’s better: Gilbert or Stephanus, and why? ·
Choir Members – Why not wax poetic on your favorite hymn? ·
Council Members – Sell the church! (Yikes. That doesn’t sound
right.) What we mean is, promote the characteristics that make DLC unique. Let’s have some fun with this!
Let Pastor know if your group is ready for a “Commercial Competition” during
Soup Supper. Cordially, Confirmation Kids & Mentors Confirmation

The Lord's Prayer I
cannot pray Our, if my faith has no room for others and their
need. I
cannot pray Father, if I do not demonstrate this relationship
to God in my
daily
living. I
cannot pray who art in heaven, if all of my interests and
pursuits are in
earthly
things. I
cannot pray hallowed by thy name, if I am not striving, with
God's help, to be holy. I
cannot pray thy kingdom come, if I am unwilling to accept God's
rule in my life. I
cannot pray thy will be done, if I am unwilling or resentful of
having it in my life. I cannot
pray on earth as it is in Heaven, unless I am truly ready to
give my self to God's service here and now. I
cannot pray give us this day our daily bread, without expending
honest effort for it, or if I would withhold from my neighbor the bread that I
receive. I
cannot pray forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass
against us, if I continue to harbor a grudge against
anyone. I
cannot pray lead us not into temptation, if I deliberately
choose to remain
in a
situation where I am likely to be tempted. I
cannot pray deliver us from evil, if I am not prepared to fight
evil with my
life and
my prayer. I
cannot pray thine is the kingdom, if I an unwilling to obey the
King. I
cannot pray thine is the power and the glory, if I am seeking
power for
myself and my own glory first. I
cannot pray forever and ever, if I am too anxious about each
day's affairs. I
cannot pray Amen, unless I honestly say, "Cost what it
may, this is my prayer."
