In order to build community this week and next, you will have some choices as to where you want to go for chapel. Even as you hear about your choices, try not to think about what your friends will choose. Have a mind of your own, and if you feel a nudge to choose something different than normal, be brave and go for it! Remember, second semester chapels are inviting us to action (not to just sit back passively) - but to participate and respond in a variety of ways.
THE FIRST OPTION - A PANEL DISCUSSION: Come meet some unsung heroes of our campus - some Monte Vista staff members you probably don’t know yet (but you should). You’ll get to hear their stories and their hearts as they share with us why they serve at our school - and they’ll also call us to serve in our community. Mr. Kleffer will facilitate this lively panel discussion in the High School Gym.
THE SECOND OPTION - SINGING GOD’S PRAISE Don’t be shy. Come bring your heart and voice to sing songs of worship in the theater. Led by Mr. Fleming and our chapel band, you’ll join with others who desire to sing. This intimate setting will also provide you with opportunities to pray and/or receive prayer. There should be much joy as God’s people unite and delight to praise His name. Note: This venue is limited to the first 100 people who come through the doors.
THE THIRD OPTION - A PRAYER WALK: Come walk and talk with God during this time of prayer led by Ms. Chelsea Fenwick and her team. The walk will begin at the pool area and will continue all over campus as we cover Monte Vista in prayer. We will hear from God’s Word and interact with Him as we pray from the heart according to His will. You will have opportunities to praise God, confess sin (yours and our school’s), thank Him, and ask for His mercy and blessing upon you and Monte Vista.
Again, please don’t worry about where your friends will choose to go. Even now, we will pray that God’s hand will guide your heart and your feet to where He wants to take you - that He might meet you in the way He wants. Would you be willing to open your heart with mine as we pray together?
