Heart School (5th Grade) Week 1



This year I really want to focus on Jo Bean's heart. We'll be spending more time working on heart matters. Which isn't really something you can gauge really with some sort of curriculum. I want him to have a heart of worship. He loves God, but I just don't see that desire to truly worship Him... so that will be our main focus this year.
