“So don’t be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful…”
~ Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly
At my son’s former school, each 5th grader is considered a “senior” as it is the highest grade at the school. Before they graduate, the 5th Grade students each deliver a “senior sermon," which is based on a Gospel reading. On a recent Sunday, we were treated to a sermon given by a 5th Grade girl. She delivered a wonderful sermon about the Bible passage where Jesus invites the first apostles to follow him. This girl talked about how Jesus was inviting them to be the best versions of themselves. She said that that the school, her teachers and her friends had helped her become the best version of herself. Then she played the guitar and sang “True Colors.” I don’t think there was a dry eye in the house. I admired her courage.
