Ash Wednesday, Lent Begins -- By Aaron Hooper
Talked about people who do nice things but don't brag about what they've done.
Talked about Ash Wednesday, and some things that people were going to give up. Jackson said soda, Rachel said no more than 30 minutes of T.V., Julia said she's going to try to say the word "but" less often, and Brooke give up Instant Mssngr...and there were more.
Also we talked about how Jesus travelled from Nazareth to get baptized by John the Baptist. John the Baptist died at the hands of Herod who had his head brought to him on a platter. It was later the followers of Jesus realized that it was Jesus and not John the Baptist who was really the Messiah.
Mardi Gras beads were handed out for fun.THE NEW CONTEST IS FIND JAMES, JACKSON, and THOMAS IN THE COOKIES--WHAT COOKIE ARE THEY ON?
Cookies and purple milk were served for a great snack. See if you can find James, Jackson, and Thomas in the Mardi Gras Cookie picture!.
