Continuing to work on the following words/characteristics:  Courage, Confidence, Conversation, Contentment, and Compassion.  

~  God keep us on the path that You have set and established before us. Let knowledge be passed down to the younger generation that would help them grow and flourish, being in the world but not of it. Let them most of all know You and what You would have them strive to do to be a light to those around them.
