   the volunteers and leaders to even things out a little bit.  Who ever reads the
   verse first, wins a prize (usually a piece of candy).  We usually try to make
   sure all of the kids find and read their verse so they can have a piece of
   candy.

16.      Bible Statement
       While the kids still have out their Bible after the Power Verse Race, I ask
  them to stand, hold up their Bibles and shout the Bible Statement after me.

This is my Bible!

I am what it says I am!

I can do what it says I can do!

I can have what it says I can have!

My mind is alert!

My heart is open!

I am about to receive

A life changing message

And I will never be the same

In Jesus' name!
