Idea one: We are going to find a time to meet at the Teller campus and check in on a Senior Commons. A place to call their own. A place to be social, a place to just hang out!
“To be a human being is directed toward one’s fellowmen. . . . What is being said in this verse (Gen. 1:27) is that the human person is not an isolated being who is complete in himself or herself, but that he or she is a being who needs the fellowship of others, who is not complete apart from others” (76) -- Anthony Hoekema
Idea two: Senior Leadership Retreat. I would like to take our class of 2015 into the mountains for 4 days (3 nights) and really focus on them as leaders. I've got some brainstorming ideas rolling already. I'll be sharing them with the public soon because I would love your input. Here are some brief opening thoughts.
- Mission for the retreat [DRAFT]
- If we want to attempt to lead others, we need to be transformed, we need to become image bearers of God in a way we never imagined. This must be our sole focus in life!!
- Requires
- Unrelenting effort
- True joy
- Slow life down a bit
- Prayer!!
- Humility
- Servant attitude
- Check my attitude at all times
- Before we can lead others, we have to learn to live the life we have always wanted to lead. Before we can do that we need to recognize… we are a broken people.
- The first step to becoming an effective leader is to look in the mirror.
- Goals for the retreat
- Students learn what it takes to lead a…
- Team
- Club
- Group
- Choir/Band
- Peer group
- Encourage our students to be transforming leaders for Denver Christian Schools
- Increase our Seniors ability to lead our campus

Again, this is a brief beginning... more to come down the road.
