Highlights of the week

Every week we sit down to write our blog (since we can only write on
saturdays) and it is so hard to know what to write about. Do we talk about the
students the past week…our teachers we are discipling…what we personally are
learning…? It is so hard to decide.
 
So let’s do 5 highlights that cover all those areas:
1) My mom’s
birthday was March 4th, I was sad that I couldn’t call her, but prayed for her
and thought about how blessed I am to have a mom who loves me and cares for
me!
2) I talked to my ‘sister’ Liza on Skype last weekend and it made me so
happy- I really miss her.
3) Read an interesting book about the ‘Emergent
church’. Ben and I had many nuanced (a very emergent word!) discussions about
this book with our friend Jay- I love books that make you think.
4) Our students studied Judges, Kings
and Jonah. In fact they taught Jonah in groups to themselves. Now that we are in
the last weeks we are really trying to give them tools of how they will pass on
all that
they have learned.
5) Our teachers are tired. They have worked really
hard for a month and a half. Please pray that they (and we) have endurance to
finish well- two more weeks left.
 
Thanks so much for taking our life journey with us as you follow along on
this blog. Talk to you next week :)
