We're Going to Nationals

As I mentioned last week, Grant (our 12 year old) entered the Iowa District Fine Arts Festival in the category of short sermon. You have to write and preach a sermon around a theme--and it can only be five minutes long.

Well, this was his first year and we were hoping for a Superior rating, but he wound up with a Superior with Invitation. That means he's invited to the National Fine Arts Festival in Charlotte, NC, starting August 3. We're so proud of him. He did a great job!

He scored 115 out of a possible 120 points. In fact, one judge gave him a perfect 40!
