My Cross Country

This Monday, I went to Cross Country in the Redwoods. Room 4 did lots of training, our goal was to run 4 laps around the field without stopping, we only had 5 minutes, but we had to put a lot of focus and effort into running those laps. At the day of cross country, Krisha's mom took me, Nyla, Marian, and of course Krisha to the Cross Country. When it was the Year 6 Girls' turn, my heart was beating so fast, I was so excited yet so scared at the same time. As I was running, a lot of sweat was building up my forehead and it was really cold, but I continued running no matter what. There were adults who encouraged me to continue. Even though I was out of breath while running, I couldn't forget my manners so I said thank you every time there were adults who encouraged me. The surface in The Redwoods was very uneven, every time I was going uphill, my knees were killing me! It was almost like there was no end to the track. At one point my shoelaces untied but I just kept running hoping I wouldn't trip over them. Luckily, I didn't and I finished the race successfully.

The Ascension

What is the difference between the Ascension and the Resurrection?

The Resurrection is when Jesus came back to life as a human, you could touch him, talk to him, and he could talk, and he could touch others as well.

Forty days later, that's when Jesus ascended into Heaven, you couldn't touch him anymore, but you could still talk to him through prayer.

Happily, the disciples talked to Jesus after he resurrected, but they were pretty sad to see Jesus ascend into heaven.
