ACS elementary students in the Servant’s Heart Club continued to find unique ways to serve and bless others for their final two projects in May and June — decorating flower pots and planting a flower in them as gifts for Mother’s Day and making ice cream sundaes to give to teachers and staff.
“It’s all about sharing God’s love by serving others,” said Club Advisor and ACS parent Jennifer DiMaio. “It’s important that we find ways to let the people God has put in our lives know that they are loved and appreciated.” The 14 students from the 2nd to 5th grades who are members of the Club have been meeting after school on the first Tuesday of every month since October 2020 and each month’s project has had a different theme.
DiMaio said the students had fun at their May 4 meeting using colored markers to decorate their flower pots with artwork and special messages and were excited about giving them as gifts to their moms as well as to some of their teachers. For their final club meeting on June 3, the students were treated to ice cream sundaes and then spent time making about 20 additional sundaes and delivering them to teachers and staff in their classrooms and offices, and to custodial staff in the hallways.
