Yes, actually so cool we nearly froze here in South Florida! While it was pretty cold, the weather forecasters made us feel kind of wimpy. With temp's in the mid-30's, they were talking about wind chill in the 20's. I didn't ever think about the "wind chill factor" kicking in until it was well below freezing. And I am not sure "wind chill" should be a recognized term in South Florida! Is it really right for South Floridians to discuss the impending doom of "wind chill", when other states are hitting sub-zero temps? Hmm, interesting. When we have hurricane force winds, do the reporters say, "It is 80 degrees today, but with the 100mph winds, the "wind chill" is 68 degrees."?
So the question I pose to FRCA students and parents is: When is it acceptable to use the term 'wind chill'? Is there a temperature point, or maybe a temperature differential?
FRCA students and teachers had an 'Arctic' blast with the cold weather. Many classes enjoyed snow days filled with hot chocolate, 'snow writing', and lessons about snow flakes....have you ever pondered the snowflake? How God designed each beautiful, glistening flake as a unique piece of art. How mighty our Creator, not one single flake is the same as another! Just like God created you and me, and every other person; we are unique and special in our design. We each have unique characteristics, for which God has a special and unique life-plan! Wow!
Search the web, ask your teacher, find the answer to the question: When is it acceptable to use the term 'wind chill'? Is there a temperature point, or maybe a temperature differential?
Popsicles to the first class that gives Mr. Hewlett the answer and the verifiable resource used. Post your answer here!

Donuts & Baptism?!
provision, His Son Jesus Christ! The birth of Christ, His life, sacrificial death, and His resurrection, mean we can be free from guilt. When we pray, believing in faith, that Christ has forgiven our sins, God sees us as holy. We are covered by the sacrifice of Jesus!
Over 200 people prayed to receive the ultimate gift of forgiveness and salvation. Over 200 people have been freed from guilt, made new in Christ! Immediately following service, many took their next step of baptism. These people did not come to church planning to be baptized, but God stirred in their hearts. We had the clothes and the water, they were obedient, and hundreds celebrated together!
Christiana and a friend from FRCA, took in every moment; clapping and celebrating each time someone went under the water! I love being part of a church that so strongly believes in chasing after those hurting and lost in our communities around the world! What an awesome example my little girl has in her church. I am confident that soon, she too will take her first steps in her journey as a Christ follower.
Oh yes....the donuts! We bought 4 boxes of Krispy Kreme donuts. The box had a sticker on it, inviting people to church. We were encourages to give the boxes away to a stranger and wish them a Merry Christmas. I don't know who received the greatest joy; the person receiving the donuts, my little girl as she gave them away, or Christia and I as we watched Christiana give them away!
Where are you on your journey with Christ? What is your next step?
Who are you inviting to church this Christmas?
Have a merry Christmas, and invite family, friends and neighbors to be part of it all!
