Chapel:  ?M? is for Minimize.  Ask your children to finish this phrase:  God first, others second, I?m_____.  Answer?third.  Our example this week was Christ when he was tempted.  Jesus always placed God and His Word before any personal wants or gains. 

Thank you! 

We had a great turn out for our Terra Nova meetings. It was so much fun to see everyone at the ice cream social.

I?m still asking children their names.  I enjoy seeing them in their classrooms and at lunch.  They are always surprised when I know them.  Children are a blessing from the Lord, created in His image for the purpose of doing His work.  Our job as teachers and parents is to help them pursue this.  By treating each child as an individual, it reminds them of their purpose and special design! 

Enjoy the Labor Day weekend!  Come back ready to really engage in learning.
