Harvest Festival

Last Friday was Trinity's annual Harvest Festival and my first opportunity to enjoy this event.  Here are highlights from some of my favorite moments of the night.  

"The Sales Team"

Our kids were selling glow sticks as a fundraiser and some of the students (ie- Carlton and Luke in the first picture) were the "sales team supervisors."  Carlton in particular was so serious about his job.  He reminded me of a modern day business man.  The second picture is the girl's expression upon hearing the "rules" of sales.

"The Cake Walk"

Like all good church events there was a cake walk.  For those who aren't as familiar with this phenomenon, everyone chooses a number and stand on it.  Usually there is music to follow while everyone walks one direction on the numbers.  When the music stops you land on your number.  The conductors select a random number (in this case from the box) and someone wins a cake!  However, these ladies were having trouble reading the numbers and it made for quite an entertaining sight hearing them banter back and forth as to what number was just pulled.  Such a great job ladies!

"Hanging Out with Friends"

I just love watching my students enjoy the fellowship of their friends.  Trinity is such a big family and you can tell as you watch the kids interact with one another.

"Booth Leaders"

Many of the students were involved in booths.  Watching them building their leadership skills is awesome!  Plus, they are learning how to serve others.  Wow, what character building!

"Letter to Soldiers"

My favorite booth was Mrs. Broome's.  She brought supplies and encouraged the kids to write letters of appreciation to a soldier.  Wow, what an impact her booth must have made.  Just another example of the character building that I love at Trinity!  Plus, one really great teacher to look up to.

I'm already looking forward to next year!
