Homework + Parent Meeting!

Greetings Jr Hopers! I am glad to see that you found the blog just fine, and I hope these updates will encourage you as: students/parents/members, to keep up with the curriculum.

So, The Homework this past week is a repeat homework assignment, due to the poor number of students that actually did the assignment from the previous week.

HW: Read James 2:19 with your parents. Both discuss and write a half page response to the question; "Why is it dangerous to grow up in a christian home in light of this verse?"

This Homework assignemnt was born out of the Study lesson titled; "Follow Jesus" (Obedience is the result AND evidence of genuine faith and repentance.)
This lesson stemmed from John 6:37 "All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out."

This lesson covered a number of topics such as:

> Commitment to live under GOD's rule is a necessary response of trusting in Jesus
>Faith must be accompanied by repentance; Repentance is forsaking sin and committing to obey Jesus
>Jesus will not turn away any repentant sinners

It is our aim to assign the students homework that leads them directly under the discipleship of their parents at home. It is wonderful to hear their perspectives on life in the classroom, along with their answers to questions. But the cheif idea here is to engrain them with enough knowledge of the TRUTH in one hour as apossible, then to have the parents re-enforce these teachings at home.

This leads us to the big event! PARENT/TEACHER MEETING! Yay!

If it is at all possible, we are planning on having our first parent/teacher meeting at 12:25pm on sunday September 27th. Please let me know if you will be able to attend or not be able to attend. We will be going over the curriculum, a few needs in the classroom, and feilding any questions or concerns you may have.

We look forward to seeing you all there! Grace &peas

March ye forward!
