Welcome to the Abiding Savior Lutheran School Advent Calendar.  This is a project the 8th graders and I agreed to do on September 27th.  After getting inspiration from other websites, we set out to create our own, unique website.  Our goal was a fun website that doubles as an advent calendar.  I am VERY proud of the 8th graders and their hard work.  Never once did they ask, “Is this for a grade?”  They simply worked and worked.  We took an oath of secrecy, which has led to many people wondering just what Project “X” is. 

Please click on the calendar page to read a short devotion written by an 8th grader.  These devotions and their messages are the real reason for this project.  The 8th graders have also searched for a symbol to go with their devotion for that day.  The word and image you see at the bottom of the calendar are the symbol for the day. 


The 8th graders and I need to say a BIG thank you to all the students and teachers at our school.  So many interruptions to class time to get “one more picture.”  In the end we took over 2200 pictures!  Also, thanks to all my advisers along the way, I couldn’t have done it without you! 

Each class will be featured by themselves for a day on one of the first 11 days.  Then the pictures will be random students and staff members.  So check back each day from now to December 25th for a new devotion and different calendar page. 

Merry Christmas from the 8th graders and myself!  We hope this calendar helps you prepare your hearts and minds for the birth of our Savior!  God Bless!

Do not regret one day in your life. Good days give you happiness; bad days give you experiences; both are essential to life.
