SELAH

Spirit of the living God,
be the Gardener of my soul. For so long I have been waiting, silent and still — experiencing a winter of the soul.
But now, in the strong name of Jesus,

I dare to ask:
Clear away the dead growth of the past,
Break up the hard clods of custom and routine,

Photo by jenny downing

Stir in the rich compost of vision and challenge,
Bury deep in my soul the implanted Word,
Cultivate and water and tend my heart,
Until new life buds and opens and flowers.
Amen.

- Richard Foster, Prayers from the Heart

Share your drawing with a partner, and then you will introduce each other with a brief summary of your drawings.

jigsaw

The jigsaw technique is a method of organizing classroom activity that makes students dependent on each other to succeed. It breaks classes into groups and breaks assignments into pieces that the group assembles to complete the (jigsaw) puzzle. It was designed by social psychologist Elliot Aronson to help weaken racial cliques in forcibly integrated schools.

The technique splits classes into mixed groups to work on small problems that the group collates into a final outcome. For example, an in-class assignment is divided into topics. Students are then split into groups with one member assigned to each topic.

Working individually, each student learns about his or her topic and presents it to their group. Next, students gather into groups divided by topic. Each member presents again to the topic group. In same-topic groups, students reconcile points of view and synthesize information.

They create a final report. Finally, the original groups reconvene and listen to presentations from each member. The final presentations provide all group members with an understanding of their own material, as well as the findings that have emerged from topic-specific group discussion..

SELAH

May the peace of Christ
go with you
Wherever He may send you
May He guide you through the wilderness
Protect you through the storm
May He bring you home rejoicing
At the wonders
He has shown you
May He bring you home rejoicing
Once again into our doors.
