Sara: There is a running joke between Aaron and I and the rest of the Christian Ed staff here at SMTA. Sometimes they come upon Aaron and I doing things that seemingly are not work related...but you have to remember that a) we have the best job ever and b) we are youth ministers. So, when you come into my office and we are coloring pages out of a Halloween coloring book, this is totally normal, it's a mail surprise for some college students, of course. When you come upon us tapping a beach ball back and forth to each other to see how long we can keep it in the air, we are just doing research for FLOCK. And when our boss comes into the copy room to find us tracing life size cut-outs of Aaron, this is just prep for FLOCK. And when the rest of the Christan Ed staff is baffled that we are participating in these fun tasks, we simply respond.... "Don't be mad that we picked the better job".
Just so you can see that the seemingly unrelated tasks, are in fact, work related, see the following task from start to finish.
Step 1 - Locate model.
Step 2 - Trace said model. (and try not to get marker on the model's shirt, he does not appreciate that)
Step 3 - Begin cutting out process.
Step 4 - Admire handiwork. Attach to wall with magnets. Let kids throw wet sponges at handiwork. Connect to David beating Goliath. Job accomplished.
Just another day in Paradise.
I would like to say thank you that I got that coloring book and I hope you have received my response :)
