That's what happened today at church. I was trying to process everything that has occurred last week and that's when the pastor's example of what makes a church an "Alive Church" and it came to me. The idea of having all types of people in a church to make it successful is the same concept I feel we need at Erwin Elementary School. He used the example of our body parts and the need to have all of the parts to keep us moving. In his example, he stated that what if our foot just decided that it was tired of carrying all of our weight around and wanted to take a break? We could still get around but it would be much more difficult! Then what if that other foot said "WAIT! You mean I can just stop if I am tired too?!? I am taking a vacation too and won't return until the other foot does." You get the example...right?
We're so much better when we're all in...ALL TOGETHER :)
We can take that C grade and say " C U Later! For the 2014-2015 School Year we'll be a B school" (I would say an A but you know what they say about being on top and I don't want to worry about people "gunning" for our position).
Let's all work together and make these last weeks of the school the Best yet! Hope you enjoy this clip (disregard the union focus...just focus on the team work aspect)!
