What is BSF? (Bible Study Fellowship)
Overview:
BSF is an abbreviation for Bible Study Fellowship.
BSF is a worldwide International Bible Study Class, held once a week September through May. New members can join the first week of the month, when introductory classes are held.
BSF uses a 4 fold approach to learning:
Each week we arrive, children are taken to their classes (there are classes for preschool children, and the children must be enrolled before they can attend) and the adults gather in the sanctuary. We sing a song or two, hear some announcements, and are dismissed to our small groups.
Each year you will be assigned to a new small group. Your leader will be trained, and will attend a meeting the night before to go over what we are discussing that day. The small group discussion will be on topic, no denominations can be mentioned, and they ask that we discuss only our study, no additional books or resources, but only the bible. The questions we discuss are from the homework the week before. After covering all of the questions, prayer requests are shared.
From there we are dismissed back to the sanctuary, where we will sing another song, then hear a lecture on the study. Bring a notebook for taking notes!
At the end of the lecture, we pick up our homework for the next week. It will be several pages, and will include notes to read, then a bible passage to read and questions to answer from that passage for each day leading up to the next weeks study.
Homework takes approximately 20 minutes a day - sometimes more, sometimes less, depending on how fast you read, and how challenging the questions are for you personally that week. Every week someone will be completely stumped by some of the questions - don't worry, it happens to ALL of us. :-)
This is the link to my post right after I started BSF. Two years later, I am still so impressed with the BSF format!http://fieldsofhether.blogspot.com/2010/10/bsf-bible-study-fellowship.html

What You Should Bring:
A bible
A pen
Paper to write on
This is the notebook I made the first year:
It was overkill. :-) Last year I used a smaller binder.. this year I'm planning to use a 3 subject notebook - the kind with folder dividers, using the folders for prayer requests, and this weeks notes. The previous weeks notes I will store in the filing cabinet here at home, rather than dragging them all back and forth each week.
Covers UP ceiling paint
This stuff is awesome! Dan still wont let me take the dropped ceiling out of the kitchen, and a magic eraser wasn't enough to clean up the metal tracks the tiles sit on. They had yellowed. This stuff made the ceiling look almost new, and SO much cleaner! It covered the water spots in the hall ceiling too. $7 a can, its not cheap, but it was worth it. It sprays straight up, it is meant for ceilings.
(my FB post last week)
A week later, I can see it is a bit splotchy around my stove, where the ceiling was a bit blackened from a cooking error awhile back.. I think a second coat might fix the splotchiness, but even if not, it looks SO much better as is!
Table Before & After
I need a smaller table in my kitchen. We eat all of our meals in the dining room, so a full size table just isn't needed. Plus, the table in my kitchen was Dan's great great Aunts, and I don't want it getting too banged up.. I'd rather put it away in the attic safely, and save it for when the kids are grown and one of them needs a nice table.
So I found this one at the Amish Sale. It wasn't as cheap as my past deals, but it was a good price.
Cranberry spray paint, coated with black paint that I wiped off with a dry cloth, and antique walnut stain on the top (after sanding it lightly). The chairs got a coat of the stain too.

The chairs that came with it I did not like, so I bought the chairs on the right as well - also at the sale.

Corn In the Kettle - Take Two
We did a second "Corn Day" here at the farm. It went so fast - we were done by 11am!
We had a large crew - a lot more kids were helping this time around. Many hands make light work!
Addie was happy to "help" some more too!

Mainly spectators, they came to watch, then hung around to chat for a bit. :-)
Coffee Mugs I loved -
Found these in the Shady Maple Gift Shop -
Front - A Happy Home is is made with Love
Back - and Caffeine, Lots and lots and lots of Caffeine
Front - God First
Back - Coffee Second
I was not impressed with the restaurant, but the gift shop here (which is the entire downstairs and roughly the size of our mall here at home!) was a lot of fun to browse.
Sidewalk / Grass Edger
I LOVE this thing. It's easy to use, and cleans the sidewalks up so nicely!
This post keeps showing up as one of the most popular on my blog - and it's one of the least informative posts here. I feel bad about that. But I don't know what to tell you.. I think it came from QVC more than 20 years ago.
My mother in law gave this to us years before we moved to the farm.
We moved to the farm nearly 20 years ago.
The edger still does a great job.
Amazon has a sidewalk edging tool - but it does not look like mine, and I have no idea how well it works. It's pricey! If I were going to spend more than $30 for this one, I think I'd be tempted to spend the extra and pay the $60 (it's on sale right now) for the electric one.. but again, I have no idea how well they work.
