Wolverines in the Middle

RENEWED for a Purpose!
In becoming more like Jesus, as believers we should have an attitude of humility and serve others who we come in contact with. This service can look like the ministry we have been doing to help those affected by the flood, but it can also look like encouraging someone who is hurting during recess. We also learned that we need to love others just like Jesus did without exception. Jesus loved even the unlovable, and we are called to love those who are like us and those who are not. This is an important part of our series this year and will be a focus throughout the year. Lastly, Jesus led others to God, and we are called to do the same thing. Students were challenged with the question, "Do your actions lead others to God or away from God?"
From our Christian Leadership class performing skits to portray these ideas to our very own Ms. O'Connor sharing her testimony of how God renewed her for a specific purpose, our middle school students were able to hear a message from God's very own heart - He wants a relationship with each and every one of us and He wants all of us to be more like His Son, Jesus.
