You Really Can Text…no kidding

Teleflip is a simple and very cool service that allows you to send an email to some one’s cell phone number and it will convert it to a text message.

It can be so much easier to type an email than use the itty-bitty keys on your phone and much quicker as well. Also, if the person you send the message to hits reply, the answer goes back to your email inbox. So how do you use this simple and cool tool to be in the in crowd of texting?

Just type the 10 digit number with no spaces or anything and send @ teleflip.com. For example:

6993456789@teleflip.com

This is FREE to the sender. The only charge would be to the recipient if they are out of text minutes. Pretty cool!

Olympian Leader Grows

An open letter from a growing Olympian leader….

Before Olympian Club, my memory verse was basically John 3:16. I hardly ever read my Bible. I was thirsty for a daily devotion but didn’t have one. When I first started the club I wanted the youngest group because then I would only have to memorize the fewest verse. It was a struggle to read one book a year.

For the last 2 or 3 years I have had the oldest group because I wanted to be accountable for learning the most verses. This last year I have done my quiet time 6-7 times every week (I believe). I can’t imagine not continuing to do my memorizing scripture and quiet time. This year I am currently reading my 6^th Christian book.

I cannot express in words how much I appreciate this change in direction. I am learning more and more how much God loves me and want me to surrender my life to Him on a daily basis and serve Him.

Thank You.
