For the summer months we have traditionally had Sunday school. However, at the request of both parents and students, I am doing something different this year. We will still have class, but it will be completely voluntary.

Going back to my days working in a cancer biology lab, I decided to also do another experiment besides Google AdWords [see below]. I also added links to the upcoming youth events on my FaceBook, Twitter, MySanAntonio.com and the KLOVE.com events.
