Spiritual Pictionary

We kicked off today with playing a game of speed Pictionary. First team to get through the list of words won. Trick was we were doing words like, honesty, courage, love, family, freedom, wealth.  Some proved to be a challenge. Here are a few of my favourite drawings.

Chinese Scholarship

Congratulations to Brooke on winning a scholarship to go to China. It is a wonderful effort and achievement and we are sure you going to have an awesome time over there.

Executing Saddam Hussein

During a game we got to talking about how Saddam is going to be hung. Some of the students were against his execution because it makes us no better than he is. They believed that his punishment should be life in prison. Other students thought he should be executed. We discussed issues like who has the authority to make a decision to take a life. What happens if the process makes a mistake and an innocent person is executed?
