This past semester our church did CenterShot, which is a 12-week archery based bible study. The study helps kids learn the fundamentals of building a strong Christian life by staying focused on Christ. This is paralleled with learning archery techniques and staying focused on the target. We learned why its important to build your house on Christ the rock and not the sand and the ten "rules" God gives us to follow.
The kids had a great time with this program. They made their own bows from pvc pipe and string and arrows from wooden dowel rods with styrofoam balls at the end. We spent several weeks practicing indoors with our homemade bows and arrows until we felt confident that the kids were ready to hit the range with the real deal! We even had a visit with Merida from Brave and Robin Hood to share some techniques.
