Prayer Course, Student-Led, MS Small Groups

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GIVE A STUDENT YOUR PHONE TO TAKE PHOTOS OF A CHAPEL:
HIGH SCHOOL CHAPEL
Tuesday: THE PRAYER COURSE. We are focusing a lot on prayer this month, culminating in a Spiritual Emphasis Week Oct. 28 to Nov.1. Today we watched a video on prayer by Peter Greig. If you are interested, here’s the video:

Thursday: STUDENT-LED CHAPEL ON PRAYER. We opened chapel with Ethan explaining the maximum velocity of prayer by using a video of Mr. Rink on a swing and a pendulum physics equation. Jana & Matea used a video to explain God’s majesty. Chrissy then read Psalm 8 on top of an eight foot step ladder. We then transitioned to the fact that God is also personal. In a skit, Bethany was at play practice and clearly not doing well. After practice, the director showed his concern for Bethany’s life. The whole point of the chapel was wrapped up by Joshua and Alex in a humorous, yet meaningful way. When we pray, we need to consider both God’s majestic and personal nature.



MIDDLE SCHOOL CHAPEL
Wednesday: SMALL GROUPS. Students got into small groups by grade and then by birth month. The “mixer” questions were about a favorite meal & something exciting that happened in the past year. Then we turned our attention to Ephesians 3:20-21. After saying it aloud, we spent some quiet time reflecting on the verses. Each student then shared about the verse. Tim & Elissa led the singing. We sang one of our favorites, My Lighthouse! Enjoy the video.
