Don’t Forget (Nationally), Pt. I
“Be careful to follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase and may enter and possess the land the Lord promised on oath to your ancestors. Remember how the Lord your God led you all the way in the wilderness these forty years, to humble and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands. He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your ancestors had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord. → Read more...

For the past few months, in the middle of a career search, I have been working as a substitute teacher for several local Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (DHH) programs. These programs are all located within local schools in the area. Many of them have classrooms that are carved out of vacant classrooms in the school building. School districts that have deaf children who live within their districts will usually send the kids to the appropriate program. These programs are usually outside of the child’s home school district, so some of these kids will ride on buses for trips up to 30 minutes to reach a school where many of their peers don’t live by them. → Read more...
