ON YOUR HONOR

On Sunday morning, our students talked about the power of words.  We talked about strengthening relationships with others by keeping our word.  Students learned the importance of trust when building relationships, and honoring a commitment once we make a promise.  We talked about Noah and GOD and the relationship they built through the ark, and learned GOD made a covenant with the world through the rainbow. Students created a rainbow of promises and thought about commitments they could make and honor.   It was really quite difficult for some of our students to go out on a limb, and make a promise, knowing they may be help accountable.  Please ask your students to share their promises with you, you may be pleasantly surprised.

Unfortunately, school was cancelled on Tuesday afternoon, but we hope to conclude our conversations about Noah in the coming week, and look forward to learning about heroes, the strength of a community, and leaving a place we know as home, and moving to a new land filled with hopes and dreams.
