Last Week of Chapels

HIGH SCHOOL CHAPEL
Wednesday: Annual Senior Slideshow chapel. All the seniors sat together on the stage. We watched the slideshow (thanks for making it, Jill!). The slides featured a baby picture, senior photo and plans for next year. School photos from elementary and middle school were also shown. The chapel ended with the teachers circling around the students for prayer. Mr. DeKoekkoek, Ms. McNeil and Mr. Lindloff prayed.

Thursday: Last chapel and summer challenge for the 9th-11th graders. We began with the TC auction slideshow and duet, by Anna & Maggie. Simply beautiful! Grant, Myah & Luke led us in singing Reckless Love. Mr. Wiener then gave a brief talk that included him and trees. His comments focused on growing in faith this summer.

MIDDLE SCHOOL
Friday: Anna & Maggie once again began chapel (see H.S. Thursday chapel). Then the field day captains came to the stage. In groups of eight, they came up with a short skit on great outdoor summertime activities. Finally Mr. Wiener gave the talk he did on Thursday with the H.S.

Have a blessed summer!

Small Groups, Seniors Share, Tennis Lessons

HIGH SCHOOL CHAPELS
Tuesday: Last small group chapel of the year. Students’ sharing focused on reflection of this past year and how they can apply Colossians 2:6-7 this summer (and beyond!).

Thursday: Senior Testimony chapel. Eleven seniors reflected on their high school years. They shared how God had worked in their lives and how they have grown in faith. What an encouraging time!

MIDDLE SCHOOL CHAPEL
Friday: Mr. Wiener gave “tennis lessons”. Using the game of tennis, he explained lessons on faith: what do you enjoy? what bothers you? what risks are you willing to take?

Asian Heritage, Orchestra, Vandenberg Homeroom

HIGH SCHOOL CHAPEL
Tuesday: Today was our Asian heritage chapel. We began with the Lord’s Prayer, spoken in a variety of Asian languages. We then sang How Great is Our God. The song included lyrics in different languages. Then three students shared about their experience in Asian churches and how Asian culture affected their faith. We concluded by singing the Revelation Song. Revelation 7:9, “After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb.”

Thursday: The TCHS Orchestra blessed us with their music!

MIDDLE SCHOOL
Friday: Ms. VanDenBerg’s homeroom led chapel. The theme was identity in Jesus Christ. Through Scripture, prayer, video and on stage visuals (see photos below), students reinforced the truth and beauty of being called a child of God through Jesus. Notice what happened with the fingerprinted Post-it notes in the chapel.
