Leaders














Samantha took this picture of her friend Isabelle.  It was Isabelle's birthday today!  Many blessings to you Isabelle.

ITBS testing again today.  3rd and 5th Graders also have a math test tomorrow along with everyone having Bible verse assignments and quiz.

In our morning meeting today we talked about what makes a great leader?  The students had some great ideas.  I asked for some examples of people who where great leaders and many of them mentioned their fathers, mothers, grandparents and pastors - and of course Jesus.  We watched this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJuR3XLRsxE

Our quote for the day is from John Quincy Adams, "If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader."

  1. Happy belated birthday Isabelle. Great candid shot Samantha. We need to feature our good friends more often don't we...even if it's with a camera. :) Inspiring quote, Mrs. Velbis. I love Christ's postures of leadership...stooping down to touch, the corralling soft tones of His voice, and kneeling down to wash feet - kinda opposite to what our culture extols.
