Growing and Learning Together!

How has God shown up in your class? 
The presence of God has shown up in my class through the behavior of my students. They respect each other and are passionate about the devotion we do before starting the class each day. 

What are some notable updates or activities that your class has been a part of? What was the occasion and why is it important to your culture? 
Flag Day is when we celebrate our beautiful flag every May 18th.  Labor Day is when we speak up and encourage students to engage with their society and work hard to advance the economy of their beloved country. 

What is your favorite memory from this year so far? Something that made you laugh? Cry? Praise God? 
What I have been enjoying this year so far is that over the Christmas holidays my students learned many new Christian songs to sing when we do devotions in class. 

What are some activities or events that you and your class are looking forward to? 
We look forward to playing soccer with the other classes, celebrating Flag Day, and Labor Day. 

Is there a Bible verse that your class has been studying? Or maybe a verse that God has put on your heart during this season?
My students are studying Psalms 90:1-2. We enjoy studying the Bible together to increase our knowledge in the word of God. 

Is there a student or parent that has stood out to you? How and why? 
I have a parent who complained that his child was not getting good grades in school and wondering if it is because I am not paying much attention to his child in school. I encouraged him to make sure the student is doing his homework. He checked on that, and the student has been doing much better lately with his schooling. 

What would you like to say to partners who are supporting the class and students? 
We are tremendously blessed by you and thank you for opening your hearts to support these students. May God continue to bless you and keep you safe from harm. My class always prays for you every day of school. May the peace of God be with you. 

Prayer Requests: 

• I would like you to pray that we stay healthy. 
• Please pray that the students focus on their studies so that this year is a success for us.
• We also want the presence of the Lord to be in their life. 
• Please pray for God to keep me in a good spirit to teach and share my love with them.
