SILVER Thanks! Challenge

EARNS YOU THE SILVER THANKS! BADGE.
The 
הוֹדָאָה (hoda'ah; thanksgiving) blessing gives thanks to God in general, and for four specific things:
  1. For our lives - being able to live and breathe!
  2. For our souls - being able to think, feel and love!
  3. For daily miracles - the surprising things of life that are good!
  4. For the wonderful things that happen to us all day long!

YOUR TASK:  Your task is figure out what daily miracles are part of our lives.  

STEP ONE:  Start your challenge by talking to adults and friends about "daily miracles - the surprising things of life that are good!" What kinds of daily miracles do others see around them?


STEP TWO:  When you think you have an idea of the daily miracles this blessing might be talking about, think about how you are going to capture one idea.  You might:
  • Draw a picture or take a photo
  • Create a collage
  • Write a song or poem
  • Cut out an article in a magazine or newspaper, or print one from the internet.

You might have another way to capture a miracle that is ordinary, the kind that happens every day.
 

STEP THREE: Take a photograph of your work and send it to ImGonnaStandUp@jecc.org.
