To be free to worship God as they wanted. Happy Early Thanksgiving from our class. The children have been learning the messages of this season, but there is just so much to learn. Thank you pilgrims for your bravery. Did you know that they sailed for 65 days with 102 passengers to the new world? The children were most impressed with the fact that there were no bathrooms or showers available and that they didn't even really exist at the time. To them - this was the biggest sacrifice. (And that there were no Game Boys, Nintendo DS or Leapsters to make time pass quickly.) Once they arrived, however, making friends with the Native Americans was assumed. The children said that everyone can be a friend in Jesus. God's love truly does abound in our small classroom. Thank you parents for these wonderful boys and girls.
