Additional Note for 7th and 8th Grades Wednesday, May 13, 2020

Thank you all for attempting to meet with me this morning.  I'm sorry we could not manage owing to the technical issues. 
For literature, please read the next selection, "The Bandanna" (408-409).  In the Seeking Meaning section at the end, do #1--you should be able to come up with at least 15 examples.  It is due tomorrow at 3:00 pm.
For Bible, read Acts 20:1-13.  Answer the following questions in complete sentences, unless otherwise noted. 
1. Why did Paul decide to leave Ephesus?
2. Why did he decide to leave Greece?
3.  What last-minute change did he make to his travel plans?
4. Notice not only all of the names that Luke lists as Paul's companions, but also where they are from.  Make a T-chart with the names and their places of origin.
5.  What is the point that Luke is making, do you think?
6. In Troas the famous story of Eutychus takes place. 
    a.  The people are meeting for worship, but what does Luke call it? 
    b. Why did Paul talk so long?
    c.  Why else was it easy for Eutychus to fall asleep? 
    d.  Tell about the miracle that took place.
    e. This could have been a tragedy, but it ends up being almost a comedy.  Explain.
    f. What other miracle does it remind you of? 
This is due tomorrow by 3:00 pm.
Again, I'm sorry things didn't work out, but it was good to see you, even briefly.
