Specific Prayer Requests for Mrs. Fuller and the Kindergartners

Fruit of the spirit for the kindergartners

• Love for others outside ourselves
• Joy in everyday things- contentment for what we have, thankfulness for families, creation, help us with frustrations to have joy- help me not to complain when things seem burdensome or schedules seem overwhelming to find joy in each day.
• Peace- for children when they are fearful; For a peaceful classroom when both K classes are together- when we are many the voices get loud and it can be less than peaceful.
• Patience- for our children with one another, esp. little girls that get their feelings hurt by other little girls. Patience for children as they wait for things, their turns.
• Kindness- some of our children are starting to show true colors and are not always kind. The problems are minor, but help Mrs. Fuller to teach and model kindness and the children to use kind voices and words, esp. not to leave some children out.
• Goodness- let the children have pure speech and seek to be good- be good citizens , be polite , raise their hands, listen to others.
• Faithfulness- to be loyal to friends and family, families to be faithful in Bible study, worship and prayer, in spending time with one another.
• Gentleness- May we all know how to answer one another in gentleness when wronged by someone else or when we have a need or when I correct or need to encourage a student.
• Self-control- for the students through the day and especially when the kindergarten classes do joint activities.
