5th Grade Trip to Lake Swan

Psalm 104:24 How many are your works, O Lord! In wisdon you made them all, the earth is full of your creation.

Thursday morning bright and early, students, parents and teachers headed to Melrose, Florida near Gainesville for an outdoor learning experience taught from a biblical perspective. The students observed God's creation in its natural state, enjoyed hands-on learning experiences and participated in cooperative team building and problem solving activities. The students learned how to canoe across the beautiful spring-fed lake and then enjoyed a swim in the crystal clear, cool waters. Thursday evening provided clear skies for the students to observe many of the stars and constellations created by our Almighty God. Everyone enjoyed a time of worship, testimonies and s'mores around the campfire. Friday morning the students rose to cool crisp temperatures and enjoyed a hearty breakfast to prepare them for a morning of classes that included learning about the importance of our Florida aquifer and God's plan for even the smallest of critters.
