Be a Light in Another's Life!

Special Classroom Visit

Last month when the Myriam sisters visited our classroom they stressed with us:

"I AM UNIQUE, THERE IS NO ONE ELSE LIKE ME!" 
 
They also asked us to challenge ourselves every morning to thank God for who you are. 

Today we were blessed to again have the Myriam sisters, Melanie and Genevieve, visit our classroom. Their energy and spirit is so contagious! They talked, sang songs, and played a game with us about the new saints and how they are like "SUPERHEROES" who inspire us to make a difference in the lives of others!

They gave us a classroom challenge: you all have special qualities, practice your chosen quality for the rest of the month. For example; if your chosen quality is leadership, then you are to practice/share your leadership skills with your classmates to make a difference in their lives. In other words, BE A CONTAGIOUS SAINT!"

These are the new saints discussed in today's visit.
