The place we are all searching for...

"The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world's great hunger meet." ~ Frederick Buechner

My students started their first project today - a project about their own personal passions. They will be collaborating to make a bulletin board, illustrating and explaining their passions. It is a diverse group of interests this year - machines, motocross racing, video games, animals, sound engineering, etc. We'll be returning to this theme over and over again - what do you know ? What do you love? What do you have to offer the world?

We forget to ask young people with disabilities, "What are your gifts? What are you bringing to the table?" Bring it... the world needs it.
