Quick update

The little chicks are doing well for the most part, but we lost Nathaniel's one remaining chick. He wants to order more, but we will wait for warmer weather as his are pets and it is nice having chicks around often. We wanted to get the layers now so we get eggs this year. If we had waited, we would have gotten into winter before laying began, and that messes them up a bit.
We have the one weak wyandotte that isn't doing bad, but isn't thriving either. The rest are scurrying around running laps around the box. I may have to open the other compartment to give them more room, just for exercise.
Just thought I would update a bit quickly. Our home Bible study will start on Monday March 10. This will be an introduction to God and the Bible. We are using the book, "What does the Bible teach?" and inviting our neighbors from up to a mile in all directions. We will be meeting in the new "Bible study room" which could turn into a home church down the road. That is a long ways out, and we will see how God blesses this study. I pray that some will come hungry for the truth of God's Word and get saved. Evangelism is the primary goal of this study, and then discipleship to follow. Pray that this goes well and is well attended. We will hold a corresponding Good News Club for the children of folks that come out. It seemed like a great opportunity to reach adults and children at the same time.
Have a great Lord's day!
