The Child who has felt a strong love for his surroundings and for all living creatures, who has discovered joy and enthusiasm in work, gives us reason to hope... hope for peace in the future.

Welcome back & Happy New Year!

When asking the children why Martin Luther King was so important that we have a day off to celebrate his birthday their response was:

Naomi: “Because he helped every one”

Tarahneh: “He changed the law because he wanted every one to be happy”

Selah: “Because he wanted to change the world, so white and black kids can go to the same school”

Claire: “He wanted to help other people more”

Jason: “He’s nice to every one, and he’s special to help every one be nice”

Other cute things they say:

Claire: “Don’t touch your eyes because they’re fragile”

Selah: “I’m having a laugh attack!”

Zoe: “This is like our second house where we have lots of fun and we know everything around us”

Ezri: “One day I will go to College to learn how to change diapers”

We had Community Helpers from all over come share their professions with us. The kids learned so much!
