During English class at Teen Challenge this past Saturday, I took some time to review the basics since we were gone a few weeks to attend our son's graduation and visit family. After reciting the alphabet as a class, I asked for volunteers to recite individually. About half the class took me up on my challenge, but quite a few of my students are new and didn't want to try.
Until I rewarded the students who made an effort.
The moment I took out my little bag of candy, hands started flying in the air! Most of the rest of the students at least tried, although they had previously only attended one class.
Note to self: buy more candy.
While I worked with some students who are a little further along, the new students played Bingo to learn their numbers.
Yesterday at Teen Challenge, Director Gamaliel preached on Boundaries. Quite often, Teen Challenge Directors, Gamaliel and Alejandra, and their staff preach through a series which is also taped during the service. Their teaching is then broadcast on a local cable channel.
