The 8th grade have been waiting for months for the Living Stations. Their parts have been given to them and now under the direction of their teacher, Mrs. Kots, they are deeply involved in practice. The students have been taught to reflect and pray on the part they have in the Living Stations. They have faithfully practiced and the time has finally arrived for their presentation of the Living Stations.
When I came over for the Living Stations I decided to come a few minutes early. Upon arriving on the second landing of Church I found the 8th grade sitting in circles and profoundly quiet. Their quiet touched my heart and mind and soul. Mrs. Kots and the 8th grade prayed together for a few moments. It was a time of awe-seeing how comfortable these young teenagers eagerly prayed.
Their presentation of the Living Stations was moving, creative, loving, and passionate. The students in grades 5 through 7 sat quietly, eyes following along at every portrayed station, listening attentively to the readers read a reflection on each station. Part of the life of Christ came to life visually for us! It was a time of amazing grace for all of us!
