Graduation: Although June
4th is weeks away, that last day of school -- and our 8th grade
graduation -- will be here quickly. Traditionally,
hosting the reception and creating the parting gifts has been the
7th grade class gift to the graduating 8th graders. Due
to circumstances, this year's reception will be a walk-through,
similar to what was done for last year's class. Although it
was different from previous years, the evening was really special,
and the gifts the class provided were truly appreciated by the
graduates and their families. This year, I know that we also
will want to make graduation as special as we can for this year's
class.
Thank you to Tracey Tradewell who has volunteered to
lead as the event coordinator and is looking for others form a core
committee. Within the next few weeks, be looking for
information via email. If we all work
together, we can organize and be a part of a truly
memorable evening for this year's graduates and their
families. Amazingly, next year, our kids and
families will be on the receiving end.
Religion__________________________________________________________
Blessed Easter! The weeks after Easter Sunday make up the season
of Easter in the church. We will hear about how Jesus appeared to
His disciples and the instructions He gave to them before His
ascension into heaven. I pray that you will continue to focus on
what Jesus is saying to you in this season, and will continue to
follow in His footsteps. We will continue our study of the Lord's
Prayer. Our focus is on the 4th (Give us this day our daily bread),
5th (Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass
against us), 6th (And lead us not into temptation) petitions
Memory Quiz #26 - DUE April 22th (YURK) or 23th
(KELL)
2nd Petition of the Lord's Prayer - Thy kingdom come. What does
this mean? The kingdom of God certainly comes by itself without our
prayer, but we pray in this petition that it may come to us
also.
Journal Entry #13 - DUE April 22th (YURK) or 23th
(KELL)
God has commanded us to pray and promises to hear us when we
pray. The word AMEN means YES! It shall be so. What does knowing
this mean for us when we pray? When can praying be something
difficult for you to do? What happens when we don't seem to get an
answer to our prayers? What is God telling us? How can we find
comfort in this?
Sermon Note #9 - DUE May 13th (YURK) or 14th
