Our second graders learned about lighthouses on Wednesday, April 8th.  We wrote about how we can be “lighthouses for Jesus” and share God’s love with others around us.  Each student then colored a lighthouse.  Below is our bulletin board display. Please feel free to stop by our hallway and read how each child plans to be a light for Jesus.
