Life Groups

This month, the 4^th and 5^th graders joined together in their Life Groups for the very first time. These groups were modeled after the middle school life groups, as the 4^th and 5^th grade teachers felt that this would also be a great opportunity for their students. Life Groups are a place to form new friendships, grow in God’s word, and positively impact the world. Each group consists of one student from each homeroom in 4^th and 5^th grade and is led by a 5^th grade student. For the month of October, the groups studied and discussed what it means to be compassionate towards one another. The groups read the bible and a devotion, discussed God’s word, and prayed together. The groups will continue to meet each month and will focus on various character traits including self-control, empathy, forgiveness, truthfulness, and many others. These devotions were written in small groups by our 5^th graders. We look forward to watching the 4^th and 5^th graders grow together in God’s word!
