Week 30 (3/22) As we enter Holy Week...

We have begun the walk to the cross in our Bible studies.  Please consider adding these worship opportunities to your family plans:

On Palm Sunday, we see Jesus declaring himself not only our King, but the promised Messiah. 

On Maundy Thursday we see the remarkable transformation of the Passover into Holy Communion - Jesus himself became our saving Lamb of sacrifice.   

Honor the Good Friday on which Christ died for our sins and the temple veil was torn in two - the separation that sin had caused between us and our Lord is no more.  

And finally the glorious day of resurrection, EASTER, when we celebrate our victory in Christ over sin, death and the devil.  There is nothing we could ever do to deserve this love.  What a wonderful opportunity we have before us to learn and grow in our faith - to praise and thank God for this glorious gift!!,

From the class blogger:

 

We had a good week this week. We are finishing up our cross art for this week. We had 2 tests and 1 quiz this week. The dodgeball games are still going on and championship games are coming up soon. Next Thursday is our last day (at school) before spring break. Our English paper is due next Thursday. We are also having our publishing party on Thursday too.
