Post Midterm and Thanksgiving Wrap-up

Well all mid-terms and papers have been completed and turned in, and so far everything is looking good. We have also made it through our second research week, where class is not in session but we are given a lot of work to do and the opportunity to catch up on things we fell behind one (such as reading assignments). This time around research week was a little bit easier, as I had less studying to do but a little more reading. Accomplished last week was:

Read 2 Samuel - 2 Chronicles 19 (for Old Testament 2)
Read Pages 306-502 in Old Testament Textbook
Wrote a Paper on The Angel of the Lord (for Old Testament 2)
Read and wrote a report on The Five Love Languages (for Christian Home)
Translated 14 sentences from Greek to English, and 2 other Greek assignments
Read two chapters in Biblical Preaching (for Homiletics)
Developed a 15-20 minute sermon (for Homiletics)

All in all, it was a very productive week. The week we got back to classes (this week) I had a Greek quiz tuesday and a Homiletics test Wednesday. Thursday is another Greek quiz followed by an Evangelistic Message test on Friday.

Outside of class life is going very well. Danielle has been a bit sick this week, and Haden has been getting 2 molars in at the same time, but other than those two things life has been wonderful. We have loved walking to the church from where we live now and we have been having weekly get-togethers with friends from school and church. Over Thanksgiving my parents came down and spent a few days with us, and we had a few more people over as well for Thanksgiving lunch. A great time was had by all and we truly enjoyed having the company.

So life has been, as usual, very good to us. We are so blessed to be able to be here and able to learn and grow in so many ways as both a family and as individuals. We thank you for all of your thoughts, prayers and support and we wish you nothing but the best of everything!

Sincerely,
Jared, Danielle, and Haden
