   SENIOR YEAR  This year was full of many unfortunate and tragic things. However it was certainly not a horrible senior year. Looking back I can say Ive had a lot of super fun memories this year both in and out of school. One of the super fun things I remember doing early on in the year was going to Mrs. McCabes home economics class. We would always have so much fun while working on our projects and making pants. And though Covid was still at large and pretty scary we had a great time lightening the mood.   With Covid still at large the school was on edge.

  Science Vs. Faith    Science adjusts its view based on what is observed. Faith is the denial of observation so that belief can be preserved.  Science is the study of the natural world through observation and experimentation.

Faith on the other hand seems to be the complete opposite of this as it’s the absolute trust or confidence in someone or something. Biblically faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do see. However blind faith may seem it is not. Faith is like sitting in a chair or driving a car, turning on a light switch, or even opening doors. We use these things every day and don’t think twice about whether they will work or no, we have faith in them. However, these items aren’t baseless and don’t work at random. Much like God, they have proven themselves to work and exist and function regardless of whether we believe they do o
