Class Meetings

One of our new administrator's new ideas is to have class meetings once a month, led by the class officers. They have to come up with an agenda the week ahead of the meeting, approved by both the class sponsor and him. Today was our first class meeting, and my juniors came through with flying colors. It was a blessing to watch the song leader read the history of the song "The Solid Rock" and then lead the class in all four stanzas of singing it, followed by the chaplain giving a devotional on Christ our Rock. They conducted the class business well, then had three games/activities ready.

Right beforehand, the president and chaplain came up to me in a bit of a panic - "We forgot to bring blindfolds for the activity! Do you have anything we can use?" I did know of one possibility, but having been told to let them handle it, I decided not to intervene. Well, they thought of something - they got two hoodies, and had the two people who needed to be blindfolded put the hoodies on backwards. Problem solved - and they did it themselves.

Class meetings were a huge success. I love new ideas that work.
