Winning With God's Word

Yesterday was the state level Youth Bible Drill competition in E-Town. Our girls completed their drill at 9am with all 4 of them finishing as state winners! Kimberly was upset about missing her perfect drill by one mistake (on the LAST call of the drill!), but the day wasn't over yet. Shelby and Kimberly were chosen to continue on in the "speed" round. This consisted of a preliminary drill followed by a final drill to name a state "winner" who would represent Kentucky at the National Drill. Kimberly started strong with no mistakes and quick response times. She moved on to the finals. Was she ever nervous! She did an excellent job, but again had one mistake towards the end of the drill. After a long day and extremely sore arms (try holding a Bible out in front of you for 3 drills in one day!) Kimberly can say she is one of the 11 fastest (and most accurate) drillers in the state of Kentucky. Not bad for her first year in the Youth Bible Drill!
