Chapel Report
Friday March 14,
2014
Chapel this week
began on Mon. March 10 with some personal sharing from resident dean Joel
Siemens. Joel spoke on the chapel
theme ‘What is Love?’ and focused on the importance of learning to love one’s
self. Joel related some stories
and personal struggles and some things he has found helpful on his journey to
know and accept himself. We also
learned that Joel is an excellent singer!
Local missionary
Jason Johnson spoke in chapel on Wed. Mar. 12. Jason is part of a Texan Baptist church who is working in
the area, and he shared on the ALSO theme ‘To Participate is to be Fully
Human’. Jason’s enthusiasm and
passion for sharing the scripture kept the students’ attention!
Ryan Wood explored
the ALSO theme on Thursday March 13.
He outlined some root causes of poverty and encouraged students not to
make quick judgments about why people are in need, but rather commit to help
people.
On Friday March 14
custodian Mel Siemens shared about his recent MDS trip to High River. This was helpful information as the
student body is preparing for their ALSO service trips on April 7-11.
