Michelle Bauman
Presentation Description:
Life Shines at School . . . or does it? You don’t have to be in a classroom long to recognize the reality that children face life issues. Sometimes those life issues are caused by brokenness in the world, and sometimes they are caused by brokenness in self. No matter where that brokenness comes from, Lutheran schools (and home schools, and on-line schools!) have a unique opportunity to uphold and celebrate both the sanctity of life and the lives of their students.
Join LFL’s Director of Y4Life to identify some of the most common life issues youth encounter, discuss how Lutheran schools and families are uniquely equipped to uphold lives, and gain insight into resources and practices that aid those engaged in upholding the lives of youth.
