This Week in Senior Bible
This week our Seniors met their Kindergarten Buddies for the very first time, and I think both the Seniors and the Kindergartners would agree it was a great success! Hearing your students share with such joy about their new young friends—and watching how naturally and kindly they interacted with them—was truly a blessing for all of us teachers who were present.
We also took time yesterday to pause and reflect on the events of 9/11, as well as the tragic events that took place earlier this week in Utah.
Assignments
On Wednesday, your students turned in their first project on leadership. I’ll be grading those over the next couple of days, and I’m looking forward to reading their reflections and even some of the interviews you helped provide.
I also want to share with you what Fridays will look like in Senior Bible this year. Each Friday, students will read a devotional from the book of Proverbs and then write a 250-word reflection on its personal impact. I’d encourage you to ask your student about their reflections—and maybe even read the devotional yourself (which will be posted on Canvas).
What’s Next?
Today, we’ll be wrapping up our study on the Imago Dei—what it means to be made in the image of God and how that shapes the way we view both ourselves and others. Next, we’ll begin exploring the Missio Dei, or the “Mission of God,” and what that looks like in our lives. This unit will also include another project toward the end.
