Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Job 1-4 6-7 Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time ~ As we learn from Job, only God alone knows what we are capable of and how far we can be pushed, and the rewards we will receive if we trust and stay faithful. We are to trust in God’s plan for each individual. We do not know why we receive the challenges in our lives. But we are to remain strong in our beliefs and follow the teachings of Jesus in the gospels. What did Jesus bring to us? — Healing, hope and friendship. Again this week, how does this relate to our own community? We must be active participants, concerned, involved, committed and always in commune with our Creator.

Hello from Mrs.Oikonen!
We have a short week this week. I will be attending Teacher's Convention on Thursday and Friday. As such, no assignments will be posted for Thursday and Friday. We will be celebrating World Read Aloud Day on Wednesday. We will be attending a Virtual Author Visit with Ginalina at 10:30am. This will be for all grades.
We had a great presentation with Coast Salish Art last Thursday. We heard the story "No Reward for Greed" by Andrea Fritz. We learned about the basic Coast Salish shapes and then were guided through a drawing of a raven by Andrea. We have quite the artists in elementary!
