There's a group of young boys, 6th-8th grade, who play a loose version of football on the front grass of our church every Sunday night before the service. I'd call them the "welcoming committee" except that they are totally focused on catching passes, not welcoming anyone. It's enjoyable to see them having such a good time, especially since they do make an attempt to stay out of people's way.
Last night as we were walking in, one of the boys, who is in my eighth grade astronomy/earth science class, stopped long enough to say "Hey! I saw Cassiopeia last night!" Then he went back to full concentration on his game.
I felt honored to be worthy of such an important interruption.
