This week in 2013, we shared our progress with the lesson on cooperation and reciprocity from Ruhi Book 3, Grade 2, and shared about one of the gems we’ve found while digging through the spiritual mines—a normally timid girl who comes alive through drama. https://t.co/NRX1Rukk5W

This week in 2014, we reflected on our efforts to start a new class in our neighbourhood. Although we didn't manage to gather any new participants on this occasion, we made the most of our time, and spent a little while contemplating the value of perseve… https://t.co/Mo315hXVab

This week in 2013, we looked back on a class about consultation bringing unity, taken from Grade 2 of the Ruhi Book 3 curriculum. Despite some hiccups involving punctuality, discipline, and the perennial issue of age gaps, things turned out all right tha… https://t.co/wcsnSc5qP1

This week in 2016, we shared our experience with a lesson on obeying God's commandments for the love of His beauty, based on Grade 2 of the Ruhi Book 3 curriculum. It was around the tail end of cold and flu season and energy levels were low all around, s… https://t.co/616O9ZYepP

Our new children's class is developing well, with a record high of eight children attending! We got to stress-test the "giving game", a resource card game about economic justice. We also reflected on some good things about age gaps, and on the inevitable… https://t.co/hbPwfzHdC4

This week in 2016, we got together to review what we had learned about prayer over the past month. There was plenty of movement during this class, and an engaging picture-based challenge for the children. And at the end of the class, we discovered the cu… https://t.co/XKeCahSaNf

This week in 2016, we switched from using Grade 1 to Grade 2 of the Ruhi Book 3 curriculum—a temporary change as we waited for new teachers to help us offer both grades. The first class went well and was well-received, although we had to keep our wits ab… https://t.co/hUymR9XKnj
