Day 16.2

Happy Veteran's Day to all past, present, and future members of the armed forces.  Today, to tie in with the idea of recognizing soldiers, I thought for prayer we would read from Ephesians 6 on what it means to "put on the armor of God" in other words, how to be a soldier for Christ.  I had each class draw and label the things St. Paul mentions- the shield, helmet, breastplate, and sword.  He uses imagery  to help his audience to understand how we are all called to serve God and eradicate evil in the world.  



2nd hour

3rd hour
Super creepy and hilarious.  I volunteered the student
who was volunteering others to draw...it made for a great laugh for all of us,
including the student drawing.



Then I had them journal.  I wrote "Pro Deo et Patria" received a ton of confused looks.  "Huh, Ms. Sexton???"  Then I explained to them what it means- For God and Country.  This is the motto of Loras College
