1: FIVE DAUGHTERS
Mary’s father has five daughters.
They are called Nana, Nene, Nini,
Nono and … What’s the name of the
fifth daughter
2: DEVILISH COMPETITION
Jesus and Satan were having an on-going argument about who
was better on the computer. They had been going at it for days,
and frankly God was tired of hearing all the bickering.
Finally fed up, God said, 'THAT'S IT! I have had enough. I am
going to set up a test that will run for two hours, and from
those results, I will judge who does the better job.'
So Satan and Jesus sat down at the keyboards and typed away:
They moused. They faxed. They e-mailed. They e-mailed with
attachments.
They downloaded. They did spreadsheets. They wrote reports.
They created labels and cards. They created charts and graphs.
They compiled some genealogy reports.
They did every computer task known.
Jesus worked with heavenly efficiency and Satan was faster
than hell.
Then, ten minutes before their time was up, lightning suddenly
flashed across the sky, thunder rolled, rain poured, and, of
course, the power went off.
Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word
known in the underworld. Jesus stayed calm.
Finally, the electricity came back on, and each of them restarted
their computers. Satan started searching frantically, screaming:
'It's gone! It's all GONE! 'I lost everything when the power went
out!'
Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out his files from the
past two hours of work.
Satan observed this and became irate. 'Wait!' he screamed.
'That's not fair! He cheated! How come he has all his work and
I don't have any
God just shrugged and quietly said, ‘Jesus saves’.
3. HABEMUS PAPAM
Habemus Papam is a very famous pronouncement in Latin.
Do you know what it means and when it’s made
Vikki says, ‘Well, these social
networking sites are cool. But you
have to watch what you’re putting
out there. Maybe 4/500 million
people could get to see it! I’ve
been checking my privacy settings
on FACEBOOK and the other sites I use. You should do the
same. Initial settings, clicked in by default, can often do with
sorting out. Not that I want to cramp my style. But it’s not
that easy to see what’s going on. So, what I did was hit on
HELP on the bottom right of the FACEBOOK screen and took
it from there. I must have cut it down to about 100 million
‘friends’ by now. Still too many to send Christmas cards to!’
4: NUMBERS
See if you can work out the
relationship between the
following numbers. You’ll
need a calculator.

5: WORD SEARCH
Using the letters in the word
ASSUMPTION see how
many words you can make.
It could help to put each
letter on a different slip of
paper and then juggle them
about. Have fun!
