What’s
Happening in Class?

Bible: We begin a study on the life of
Joseph.
Memory verse for January 15th is: Romans 12:17-19 “Do not
repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of
everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with
everyone. Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for
it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.
·
Reading: This week we will continue reading
and discussing, Crispin. The
students are starting to get back into the swing of things and our discussions
of Crispin, have begun to
liven up again! At the end of this book we will have a celebration as in times
past. I will be giving students details about our Renaissance Street Fair this
week.
