Hey Students! On May 12th we are collecting money to buy mosquito nets for families in Africa! They only cost $10 a net, and save lives.. So come prepared that night to buy a net. For more information check out BITEBACK.NET or email mark at Mholcomb@elmbrook.org"If you think you’re too small to make a difference, try sleeping in a room with a mosquito."
Every African knows this is true because mosquitoes carry malaria—a tropical disease that kills over 750,000 children each year. That’s one child every 30 seconds. In Africa, mosquitoes make a huge difference in the lives of poor families and children.
And it all starts with a tiny bite.

Hero Movie: Grant's Story (Hero Rising)
Grant was extraordinarily average...
Average in every conceivable way, Grant is the classic anti-hero. Nothing about him seems to make him likely to succeed, unless conviction and integrity, counted as a superpower.
Grants life has been troubled lately as his group of friends seems to be falling apart. Last summer, they all traveled to Mexico with their church to build houses for people living in poverty. The trip had drawn them all so close, but now Grant is starting to feel like it is all falling apart. Ben flaked out and became a ladies man, Sierra and Kaleigh are always fighting, Sara is even more sullen than before and Skitz (Trevor), Grants best friend is never around.
None of his friends seemed to have time to listen to his problems which is unfortunate because deep in the suburban sprawl a student in Grants school had a very large problem that Grant needs help to address. A mutant 8th grade giant who Bullied Wimpy Wimperson every single day. Much too small to resolve the situation himself, Wimpy endured his large problem alone.
Will anyone help Wimpy out?

Hero Movie: Sierra's Story (An E.Z. Mistake)
Sierra was extraordinarily faithful...
Sierra was really serious about God and her faith. She was extraordinarily serious in fact. So serious that she was a little prone to being judgmental. She would gladly give Jesus her life, so long as it did not mean enduring life among the sinners.
Growing up in a good church and learning from an early age of God’s love and the life that He wants everyone to live, Sierra had doubt which path she wants to live on. But while her love for God is strong, her understanding of others is still forming. To her, she doesn’t get why people would choose anything else. Her patience and respect for them are pretty thin...
until the day she made on EASY little mistake...
