This year we celebrated Thanksgiving with David's Theological English class at Holy Light Seminary. We ate good food, talked about the origins and traditions of the holiday, sang songs, played games, and took time to share what we are thankful to God for this year. Our family is thankful to God for our many partners in ministry. You are such a blessing to us!

Jacob's Journey
In fifth grade, the moment I was interested in playing the trombone was when I saw my friend, Samuel Wyss, play it at the Spring concert. The notes were pretty hard to get because of the slide. So I tried it out in sixth grade, which is where I am at today.
When I started it, all I had was the mouthpiece. I practiced and practiced, and I got the notes right when I got the trombone. I was so happy after that!
We also practiced and practiced for the Christmas concert. We had three songs: Rocking Around the Christmas Tree, Christmas Angels, and Fanfare for Christmas. When it was time, we played in front of more than fifty people. We were fabulous!! My mom was so proud of me!
