Persecuted Church Project
The overarching study, in our Bible class, this year, is the beginning
and development of the early church, primarily based on the books of
Acts. In our class discussions, we learned that one of the factors, the
early church experienced was persecution, for their faith. The 21st
century church is not exempt. Around the world, Christians are still
being persecuted for their belief in Christ.
To
better understand, the persecution of the church, each student, will be
writing a research paper and giving an oral presentation in class. I
will be sending home a letter that will provide more details about this
important project.
This
will be a meaningful unit of study to increase our knowledge and
awareness of those who suffer, in the name of Christ. As the Apostle
Paul said, in 1 Corinthians 12:26, 'We are one body. . . if one part
suffers, every part suffers with it.'
Thoughtfully,
Ms. Kirk
