Week 3: Faith Families and 2nd Step

From the class bloggers, Hannah and Chloey

This week has been exciting because we did so many new things, but sadly we had a lot of people sick. We also had a lot of fun in Second Step, and learning about friendship.  We have gotten closer to God week by week.  Second Step has been teaching us about middle school and all you can do in it. This has also been a very exciting week because it was the first week of faith families. We can't wait until next week, a new week to learn and have fun in September.

FAITH FAMILIES:  Today was our first week sitting in Chapel with our Faith Family.   This is a group of students from all grades 1-8 and a teacher.  We build relationships through chapel, activities, service, and prayer.  This week we had our first faith family activity.  Our devotion was about being God’s postage stamp. We each must GO and deliver the Good News of Jesus.   We spent time writing what we could say to tell others about Jesus on paper.  These papers will be used in a piece of art that will  remind us to GO and TELL.  We used toilet paper squares to help get to know each other a little and then returned to chapel to celebrate Baptismal Remembrance for July, August, and September.
