Faith In First
This week First Graders explored the gospel about Jesus and the Woman at the Well. The Samaritan woman meets Jesus at the well and asks for water. Jesus gives her "living" water for life, His Spirit. She becomes a disciple and takes this living water
( God's spirit in her heart) to others. Just like the Samaritan woman the First Graders can be "living water" to others. They too can be Jesus' disciples of love.
Looking ahead......4th Sunday of Lent, John 9:1-41 The Blind Man's eyes are opened.

Shrek The Musical Junior
Once upon a time, in a far away swamp, there lived an ogre named Shrek. One day, Shrek finds his swamp invaded by banished fairytale misfits who have been cast off by Lord Farquaad, a tiny terror with big ambitions. When Shrek sets off with a wisecracking donkey to confront Farquaad, he's handed a task – if he rescues feisty princess Fiona, his swamp will be righted. Shrek tries to win Fiona’s love and vanquish Lord Farquaad, but a fairytale wouldn't be complete without a few twists and turns along the way!
