At the beginning of April, Jaden and Cody's first grade classes led the weekly chapel service at their school. The kids talked about the fruits of the Spirit from Scripture. They also connected the fruits of the Spirit to kindness since their school's theme for the year is "Kind is Cool."
Cody had quite a lengthy speaking part about apples. He had his part memorized but still used his index card to help in case he got nervous. :)
Jaden, too, had a long part that he spoke with such great expression. His part was about lemons.
Interspersed between the speaking parts, the classes had a few video skits, demonstrating kindness in action. We also got to see a 1st grade slide show of pictures. The kids taught a wonderful message to their school. Here are both boys' classes after the service was done.
We were proud of Cody and Jaden's clear speaking that day. What a good experience to speak in front of the entire school!
We didn't get pictures of the family members who attended, but the boys were blessed to have a good troop of people supporting them-- Mommy, Daddy, Adley, Grammy, Macy, and even Grandpa and Grandma who had just recently arrived in town. We are thankful that the boys go to a school where they are so clearly taught the message of Jesus' love for them and others!
