Transitions and New Beginnings
Our Chaplain, Jim Holland, welcomed new and returning students to Saturday Chapel. He spoke about transitions and new beginnings, explaining how they can sometimes be difficult but that a life that is lived in easy familiarity is unacceptable. Without new beginnings we would miss out on adventure and challenges. We need to be challenged to grow.
After the sermon, a Groves’ House Grade 12 student performed a song she composed herself that echoed Rev. Holland’s sentiments. Here are a few words from “When Life Falls Down:”
Life falls down / And our hearts will grow over time / Life falls down / And you will always find the steps you need to climb / You'll finally find the motivation / The missing piece of inspiration / After life falls down
Every bone inside you grows / Every feeling inside shows / And you realize you know / All you needed to begin / The secret key to let you in / You learn that you can finally win
