Everyone needs Compassion





The students at CCA have been studying the virtue compassion for the month of October. Putting our action to God’s word, Coach O’s 6th graders and Ms. Vitulli’s 3rd graders teamed together to talk about what it means to have compassion. Coach lead the discussion by reading Luke 10:25-37. Then the group talked about what compassion looks like in the Parable of the Good Samaritan. Together, the two groups searched and shared verses from the Bible on compassion. As we wrapped up, the Bible Buddies made compassion rolls. These rolls were filled with Hershey hugs and kisses, a band aid for healing and a life saver to show we all need a Savior. The task presented to them was to go and find someone who needs compassion and share it with them. We can’t wait to hear some of the exciting stories the students will share.
