If I met Jesus in a park and he asked me..

“Are you living by my Beatitudes?”

I would say…

Chaos, red flames, and death are waiting for me the moment I leave Elizabeth’s house. As I walk around, I wonder, did Aunt Miriam survive the bombing? Broken glass from a building stabs my body as I walk. Rubble falls every second. Heat builds up and sweat pops out of my face. I turn to my right, a ball of smoke attacks my nostrils. Feeling confused and traumatized I look around for my flat. Has it turned into rubble? Sirens are going off nonstop. Minutes pass, finally arriving, the flat still stands! Window glass shattered into millions of pieces. Bricks from the walls disappeared, but appeared on the shaking ground. Between the pile of rubble and dark red flames, a shadow pops out, like a popped corn. Aunt Miriam, she is safe. 

This Lenten Backpack is for the poor people. I placed bread and water for their needs, if they hadn’t eaten for days. The holy Bible encourages personal Bible study. The Rosary serves as a tool for prayer and meditation. The Cross is a powerful symbol reminding us of God’s love and the ultimate sacrifice Jesus made for humanity.

I hope this backpack will help those in need and on their Lenten Journey happiness.

The Holy Spirit, the Dove, is touching the hand of God and God is touching the head of Jesus. This image shows how all three work together to allow us to live in peace and love.

1. First day of school

My number 1 favorite moment was my first day at school. “Why?” you might ask. Well it was my best experience ever as a new student. I made a bundle of friends the moment I went outside. Everyone was gathering over me like I was some sort of a famous person like I was Taylor Swift.

2.  Meeting Mr. Bell

My 2nd one, was when I met Mr. Bell. I felt nervous cause I never have a boy teacher. I thought he would be a rude and grumpy teacher I ever had, but he was amazing, funny and kind to me. He is the best teacher.

3. Meeting Gabby/ Gabrielle

My 3rd one, was meeting Gabrielle! She was such an amazing person. She helped me with everything that I couldn’t understand. She motivated me to a project cause I was so nervous, but I did it! All of the motivation from Gabrielle was worth it.

4. First passion project

My 4th which is second to the last is, my first passion project. My passion project was about Axolotls. My passion project was amazing?

5. Making new friends

My last is the 5th, making new friends! I had a lot of fun making new friends cause I would learn a lot of things from them. In my opinion, I think I made over 5-7 friends on the first day of school. Crazy isn’t it?!
