The Daughters of the King devotional group talked about the 3 types of fear: holy fear, natural fear, and sinful fear. We discussed how we are called to holy fear - an awe filled respect for God that causes us to see his sweetness, goodness, beauty, mercy, & grace. We wrote down some of our personal fears to remind us that God is greater than any of our fears and that when we look to him, we will be strengthened.

Mr. B's 7th-grade social studies class got a hands-on taste of colonial life! Students became shipbuilders for a day, creating waterproof boats from aluminum foil, tape, straws, and index cards. They then tested their designs to see how many rocks and washers they could carry. It was a great way to learn about colonial history and engineering! 🚢 #SocialStudies #HandsOnHistory #ColonialLife
