Queridos Padres,
This group of students has been such a gift to me already this fall! Overall they have had such an easy time adjusting to second grade and are working so well with one another. It has been really fun to see. This past week I checked out The Message’s version of our Bible memory verse which says, “Keep your eyes open for God, watch for his works; be alert for signs of his presence” (Psalm 105:5). I love the emphasis it puts on the fact that we have to actively watch for what God is doing, because He is obviously doing incredible things around us. We are going to talk about this together as a class this week Tuesday and will brainstorm ways we see God working around us throughout the week. I encourage you to do this at home as well!
Thanks for all of your encouragement and prayers. It has been so much fun working with your kids! Don’t forget to check out the videos and pictures on Facebook or on our website to see what happens at school!
Thanks for your continued prayers for unity throughout this year!
Blessings,
Hilda Durán
