First Full Week of Chapels

HIGH SCHOOL CHAPEL

Tuesday: A chapel of prayer and song. We were blessed with prayers from three moms who attend the weekly “Moms in Prayer” group at TC. Students read Scripture and prayed. They prayed for teachers, other TC employees, families, churches, and our nation. Mr. Pelt and Grace led us in singing.

Thursday: Eight teachers submitted photos from their summer. In groups of four, the teachers came to the stage. First students saw the photos. Then seniors who were picked randomly had to guess what teacher went with what photo. Then teachers shared about their photo and used thoughts about the photo to encourage students in their faith.

MIDDLE SCHOOL

Wednesday: First chapel of the year! Nate Mitchell led us in song. We sang The Lion and the Lamb, O Come to the Altar and Reckless Love. I read a list of possible summer activities and students stood for what was true about them. Then some students shared about summer “wow” moments. The point? We need to turn our “wow” moments into worship moments. We concluded by reciting together this year’s theme verses, Hebrews 12:1-3.

HIGH SCHOOL CHAPEL

Thursday: Our first chapel of the year! After students greeted those sitting around them, there were three trivia questions about what happened at TC over the summer and next students stood if a statement was true about themselves. For instance, stand if you had a dream about school this summer or stand if you served through church this summer.

Then a ball (a soft one) was thrown out among the students. Whoever caught it was asked to share about a “wow” moment of the summer. After several throws, I challenged students to look for “wow” moments, both big and small this school year. We need to turn the “wow” into worship! Finally, we looked to our theme verses of the year. In all things we need to fix our eyes on Jesus. Jesus needs to be the foundation of our lives, not our feelings. What are the theme verses? Check out the slides shown in chapel:
