God still goes to public school in South Africa


I visited the school assembly for the first time to watch A play her flute with her music teacher.  I had heard about these assemblies for years now - 3 times a week the kids came together to sing praises, pray and hear about the news of the day.  Often there would be guest speakers.   I must say that seeing it in person made me realize how blessed we are to be in a country where God still goes to school.

The kids started off with an oldie but goodie:



Then it was time for everyone to say the Lord's prayer together.


And now we sing it together...


Followed by a talk about the Titanic and the choices that people made on the ship that fateful day.
And the consequences that followed....


Ending off with a prayer - a great start to the school day!
