Chapel Notes, by Tyrease A., Guest Contributor to the Son Times
Chapel Speaker: Mr. Jon Vugteveen
Today our speaker was Mr. V. He was talking about being fearless. Some of may ask what fear is. This is what
fear is: to be afraid of something you believe, you are scared. We also talked about faith. Faith overcomes fear.
F = false
E = evidence
A = appearing
R = real
Editor’s Note: Each week, a seventh grade student will contribute an article about the week’s chapel.
