ON MISSION FOR THE CHURCH ALIVE Peace I Leave With You; My Peace I Give To You – As the Church prepares to celebrate the Ascension of Jesus into heaven and the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles at Pentecost, we encounter today’s Gospel which is a source of great life and hope. In the course of this brief passage Jesus speaks of he and the Father dwelling with those who love them and of the Holy Spirit, the Advocate, being sent to teach them, and then he bestows his peace on them, telling them not to be troubled or afraid. The realities this Gospel presents mean a great deal in our own lives as we strive to follow the example of the disciples and be faithful followers of Jesus today. To know that the Lord dwells with us means that we are never alone and always have God’s protection and guidance. To know that the Lord sends His Spirit as our Advocate means that he moves in living and ef-fective ways to provide for us. To know that the Lord bestows his peace upon us means that as we trust in him our anxiety and worry can be no more. All of these gifts are important as the On Mission for The Church Alive! initiative continues to take shape in our parishes and groupings. As we strive to do the work in the Lord in light of the gifts he has given us we can trust in his guidance and peace. Visit onmis-sionchurchalive.org to learn more and to stay in-formed.

Middle School Science
As part of the school-wide Earth Day celebration, 6th and 7th grade stu-dents in Mrs. Ford’s science classes worked on their final Fairchild Chal-
lenge of the school year. This program is sponsored by Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens. The fifth challenge was to promote conservation and environmen-tal awareness through a project that focused on the home, school, or the community. The students put to-gether a scavenger hunt activity titled, “A Hunt for a Bet-ter Environment”. Students in grades 2-8 participated in various activities around the school to teach about recy-cling, pollution, fossil fuels, endangered species, poison-ous plants, and much more. At each station, the class earned a letter, which spelled out the answer to a riddle at
the end. “Be a part of the _______, not the pollution.” Can you guess the answer?
Intermediate and middle school students in Mrs. Ford’s computer clas-ses participated in a variety of activities with Sphero robots. Students had to code Sphero to do specific tasks. Fifth grade played a version of Angry Birds. Sixth grade traveled back to the Stone Age and made Fred Flintstone’s car get to the Rock Quarry. Seventh grade went Sphero bowling and played Connect-the-dots. Eighth grade not only tried to hit the bullseye, they also designed a golf hole and went Sphero miniature golfing.
