1) Missions' Month
I
love October! At the school where I taught October was designated Missions
Month, and every year brought fresh revelations. Each class would choose
a different country to study for the month. If anyone knew missionaries from
that country, they were contacted. At the end of the month, all the
elementary students, dressed as though they were from “their” country,
and there was a Parade of Nations through the halls of the school. As the
children grew older, they went on mission trips of their own and loved to
return and share their experiences.
After
the parade, parents would join the class to celebrate their country, often
with authentic food or crafts. . . . Read
