orange merits

Two more orange merits have been added bringing the total to 10. The new ones are Acts and Matthew. I really like the new merits. I've had several meetings go almost the whole meeting on the bible merit because the boys get so involved.

I've liked the few I've read over. I didn't realize it was up to 10 now. Not to gripe but its been 3 years and wonder how long it'll be till all of them are done.

The only bit I'd change is the "homework" assignment. Too much like school and I don't realistically see most boys complete it.

I REALLY like the new Bible Merits over the old ones! Glad they're adding more.

We tried the homework, but transitioned to just doing seven days of Bible reading with questions that we make up for each chapter (did I talk about that on the old or new forum?). That has been going really well for us.
