Announcing The Special SHINE Blog Contest!
Kevin Smith posted this in the comments section of a previous post, but it deserves its own specific post, lest it get lost in the shuffle.
SPECIAL SHINE BLOG CONTEST
Okay, let’s get serious. To help publicize this fantastic blog-able church website that Brian Beasley has put together for everyone, I am taking the liberty of creating a formal and official “special blog contest,” to include a valuble prize (Rick, no fooling). Everyone is eligible to play. Rules and prize information follow. But first, here are the six contest questions. GOOD LUCK:
1.) On the Christian Endeavor “Always Loved You” CD cover image, if a person were to walk past the cross and continue down through the woods for 100 yards, that person would: (a) cross highway 86 (b) see a water tower (c) need a canoe (d) discover a spooky abandoned cabin (e) find Traci Carter hiding with squad III.
2.) On the closing track of the CD “Always Loved You,” what word (noun) is used exactly four times in the lyric?
3.) On track 11, what is Tim’s last name?
4.) If the track times for even numbered songs are added together, then multiplied by the church’s street address, and finally divided the number of books in the Old Testament whose titles feature the letter “Z”, what number is produced?
5.) On this mysterious spot at Glenwood a person who comes to SHINE from Virginia in the month of October can see four of these. All four are different. [Stay tuned to this blog for additional clues in the coming days.]
6.) Return to the cover image, and imagine walking in the opposite direction until you arrive at a quaint and peaceful church graveyard. There you will find a stone edifice bearing the names of Revolutionary War soldiers. How many soldiers’ names appear on that graveyard monument? (a) twelve (b) seventeen (c) twenty-six (d) thirty-three (e) forty-one
RULES: Submit your answers to Kevin in person, or by email to ksmith@policehelp.net. A winner will be announced at SHINE on Sunday evening, October 26 (answers must be received prior to Oct. 26, of course). You must be present at SHINE to win. A drawing will be conducted in the event of a tie. PRIZE: $25 Gift Certificate to TRIPPS Restaurant.
In the meantime, I hope everyone will enjoy this great website for the Glenwood Presbyterian Church! SHINE ON!
