Jesse Tree Week 3
We are learning about the events and prophecies of the Jesse tree. We looked it up in a website and in groups we are understanding and knowing the meaning of the prophecy and its connection to the coming of Jesus. Getting them from the website helped us understanding the meaning of Advent and Jesus second coming, as we prepare and stay focus on his messages.
Jesse Tree Week 3
By:AJ, Faith, Ronan and Joshua C
Sunday: Elijah
Ornament: Stone Altar
Elijah Fights the False Gods
God now calls Elijah to confront Ahab and pagan gods. He is going into enemy territory: Jezebel is killing off the prophets of Israel. In spite of the danger, Elijah is not put off. When he meets with the king, Ahab called Elijah the “troubler of Israel.” Elijah responds by challenging the priests of Baal and Asherah to a contest with the God of Israel.

Monday: Hezekiah
Ornament: An Empty Tent
Hezekiah
Ahaz was not faithful to God, engaging in such contemptible practices as sacrificing one of his sons in the Canaanite way (2 Kings 16:1-4). When Ahaz died, he was replaced by his surviving son, Hezekiah. Hezekiah tried to make up for his father's unfaithfulness.

Tuesday: Isaiah
Ornament: Fire Tongs with Hot Coal
Isaiah and the Call to Holiness
In response, one of the seraphs flies to Isaiah with a live coal taken from the altar and touches his lips with it, declaring that his guilt has departed. Isaiah then hears the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” And Isaiah replies, “Here am I; send me!” (Isaiah 6:8).

Wednesday: Jeremiah
Ornament: Tears
Jeremiah
Jeremiah teaches that the people cannot pray faithfully if they continue to oppress the immigrants, the orphans, and the widows. They have to stop shedding innocent blood (some practiced human sacrifice), and they must act justly toward one another. “Here you are, trusting in deceptive words to no avail. Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, make offerings to Baal, and go after other gods that you have not known, and then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, ‘We are safe!'—only to go on doing all these abominations? Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your sight? You know, I too am watching, says the Lord” (Jeremiah 7:8-11).

Thursday: Habakkuk
Ornament: Stone Watchtower
Habakkuk: Patient Waiting
Acknowledging that he does not understand God's will, Habakkuk stands ready to hear what God has planned. God assures Habakkuk that no matter what seems to be happening on the surface, God's ultimate plan for the Judeans who live in faithfulness will not be delayed. “For there is still a vision for the appointed time; it speaks of the end, and does not lie. If it seems to tarry, wait for it; it will surely come, it will not delay” (Habakkuk 2:3).

Friday: Nehemiah
Ornament: City Wall
Nehemiah Reform and Renewal
After persuading the king to let him return to Judah, Nehemiah was named governor and given permission to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. When he arrived in Jerusalem, Nehemiah rallied the people and rebuilt or restored the walls in fifty-two days. However, he realized that the people were spiritually lax and must also be rebuilt. Ezra read the Law to the people and helped them understand its demands.

Saturday: John the Baptist
Ornament: Scallop Shell
John the Baptist
Jesus had immense respect for John the Baptist saying, “among those born of women no one has arisen greater than John the Baptist” (Matthew 11:11). John was called by God to be a prophet and prepared himself to follow this call. Dedication to a goal means some reevaluation of priorities. John apparently wanted to be free of any obligations except getting ready to proclaim the coming of the Messiah. He wanted people to know that the time for the Messiah to come was near. This meant that their priorities in life needed to be reconsidered. When we realize that we are being called to a new life in Christ, we have to consider what sacrifices we are going to be called to make to change our lives. While we will not be called to the extremes that John the Baptist was, we also need to recognize that life has to be different if we are going to be faithful

Nike Unveils Marty McFly's Iconic Power-Lace Shoes On 'Back To The Future' Day
The fans of Back to the Future has waited till October 21, 2015 to see
what would happen. They have been wanting another back to the future movie! What happen to McFly’s children yet to be born?
Nike has released a shoe that is in the movie back to the future. It is quite different from the shoes in the movie because all the technology is inside the shoe. The shoe glows like Marty McFly’s in the movie but it is better and it glows better. The shoe does its laces itself when it senses the feet.
This shoe is not the first of all. There was one in 2011 and it was also the same look and it was made by Nike. However it did not tie its laces by itself but the maker changed the features now in 2015.
The first pair of the Nike shoes went to the actor of Marty McFly. His real name was Michael J. Fox. The nike company is planning to release additional pairs in 2016, next year. If you will get the shoe it will be very expensive. The price will be around $10,000 or probably more.

Chromebooks
Chromebooks
Do you think having the chromebook helped you in learning?

Syria's Exodus
Syria's ExoduS
What is happening to Syria? Why is ISIS attacking Syria? Why are Syrians fleeing away from their country? Syria is in a civil war with ISIS fighting as well. ISIS is a terrorist group of Syrian people that are Muslim. The ISIS are also beheading people that don’t listen to their demands.
The people in Syria have to escape Syria because of ISIS. ISIS is making the Syrian’s leave the country so they can take over Syria. This is called a civil war. Civil war is when you fight their own people. ISIS is doing that to Syria. Children are suffering because of this civil war. The children have to survive their long Exodus. The children suffer most are; the babies and the toddlers. This can be a crisis because the ISIS can dress up like a Syrian refugee and start killing people when they are in the other countries. That's why some countries won’t accept Syrian refugees.
The Syrians are fleeing away to get away from the civil war. They are fleeing away from Syria in ferries, trains or even just walking! The Syrians are crossing the borders by walking into the countries like; Germany, Austria, Greece, France, Belgium, Hungary and most of the countries in Europe. The refugees of Syria also take ferries to go to the borders of the other countries. They catch trains and most of them go to Germany. Most of them are going to Germany because the Germans feel guilty of killing heaps of Jews, so they are taking in lots of Syrian refugees.
This is a big issue to these other countries where Syrians preferred to go. They provide them home's, security, food, education and jobs. Will they be able to provide them ? So if you don’t want them to travel please defeat ISIS.
