GRACE - the Favor We Don't Deserve!
While at the Pastoral Breakfast this week, Mark Sanderson, Director of the Open Arms Shelter, mentioned showing grace in his current work.
Grace can be characterized as going out of our way to give your compassion, kindness and love to someone even if they might not appreciate it or give it in return.
I have always thought it important to show grace as often as possible with people we know and with those we don't know as well or don't know at all! I believe this showing of grace can translate to our co-workers when we are all frazzled and to our students when they need just one more opportunity.
Author Dawn Klinge offers these 9 ways we can give grace:
1) With our words - a gentle answer can help to turn away anger
2) Look for needs and opportunities - simple everyday kindness
3) Let it go - keep a calm spirit if someone is rude or angry
4) Be there - sometimes just your presence is needed
5) Forgive - pretty self explanatory.....
6) Ask for forgiveness - apologize when you make a mistake
7) Watch the way you speak - be cognizant of how you express yourself
8) Gratitude - say thank you often and be thankful often
9) Take an interest in others - listen and care

Custodian Training
On Friday, October 7th, campus custodians attended a training to learn the proper and effective use of the cleaning products we use and proper inventory accounting. The sales rep from HD Products came to share his expertise as well.
Thank you to David Adams for knowing the training needed to occur and then organizing the training session!
