Goals & Objectives for Amazing Grace Project

• Students will use technology and out of school experiences to learn and use grace in their daily lives by following the instructions posted on this blog. There will be questions with space for comment and discussion throughout the course of the year. 
• Students, parents, teachers, and volunteers will work together to reach the community with a school garden. They will also use their experiences as groundwork for more outreach opportunities and community service projects. 
• Students will be able to identify the meaning of "The Parable of the Sower" as told by Jesus Christ in Matthew 13:1-23 by discussing the parable in small groups as well as the importance of planting seeds properly and caring for them with food, water, air, and sunshine. They will show kindness to each other by cooperatively working in small groups and larger groups because they will see what the teacher expects of them during this time.
  
  
  NAD Curriculum Standards addressed:
  
  
  Teachers will lead young people to live a purpose driven life while dealing with trials and temptations.
  
  
  Students will be encouraged to develop personal understandings of truth and apply them to real issues based on their study of the bible.
  
  
  Students will be led to a meaningful encounter with the commitment to the Lord.
  
  
  Jesus' death on the cross will serve as a reminder of the importance of nurturing relationships with others and with Christ and the grace he gives freely to sinners when they repent and request forgiveness. 
  
  
  There is a need to illustrate inherent relevance of biblical truth to the needs of students.

Blessings to you Mercy Seekers!
