10 years ago we enrolled Ben in a Christian school. From the start of his life, we knew we wanted to give him a Godly upbringing and a firm foundation In Christ. We have made many sacrifices over the years to get him there, forfeiting lavish vacations, and many of the bells and whistles in life to ensure we could always afford this chance for him. And not for one second have we regretted that decision. Jesus Christ is the first and most important thing in our lives. Giving our children a solid foundation is our job.
It's been an amazing 10-year journey with him, but this week, He graduated from 8th grade and his whole world is about to change. Everything he learned will go with him, The math, reading, memories, and friends will never be forgotten, but most importantly the Firm foundation in Christ that this school has helped instill in him is priceless.
Jesus was preached every single day during his time at St John's, and every day the children are pointed towards him. And that is eternal.
Tears were shed as he partook in the graduation ceremony, he gave his final speech, and he hugged his friends goodbye.
This Fall he heads to a whole new school and will make all new friends, with a whole slew of new memories. And I can't wait to watch my son embark on this new journey in life.
For those that have followed his journey up till now, HE DID IT YA'LL!
