The villagers did not believe him- that is too good to be true.  This did not stop Farmer Dave from believing what he had read.  He believed and worked on the tractor until one morning the villagers woke up to an incredible surprise- their work had been done for them!   We are like the big red tractor- God made us and He knows just how you work best.  He wrote a book full of truth that can guide us through everything this side of Heaven.  So incredible!

The class painted, made a fire truck, two bean bag activities, danced like skeletons and had music with Mrs. Gorr today.

Do not go back into house for animals or belongings.

New Prague Fire Department had two volunteers come to talk with the class. They described the equipment that they wear to protect them- and reminded kids to not be scared- they are there to help.  The class had the chance to see the fire engine and even ride around the block!  Please be sure to look at the photos.  Each student received some great items and a frisbee from the fire department.
