Aedan's Journey

(From the Editor)

As a teacher we have the opportunity to guide students through a myriad of subject matter and sometimes the pleasure of actually influencing some to apply lessons learned to their personal lives. I'm not speaking about the general academics of a given subject that is later utilized in a chosen vocation or career; I speak of the student seeing the sincere love and dedication that that teacher has for them as a student and the determination to ensure the personal success of that student.

The Calvary Courier is the avenue that the Calvary Christian School Journalism Class displays their expressive works to the public. Individuals that read this Blog publication on a regular bases will attest to the phenomenal contribution of each student.

Occasionally a student will grab the determination and passion they have witnessed in the classroom, making it their own. One such student who currently contributes to this Blog, is a young man named Aedan. Against excruciating odds beyond measure, he has not only grabbed the passion for Journalism (as visible in his many entries here), he has grabbed an exhilarating passion for life itself; modeling a prodigious example for others.

I will not tell here of the excruciating odds that young Aedan has experienced in his short tenure of this expression we call life; that is for his elucidation, which you may espy at http://aedansjourney.blogspot.com
