A Savior who gives Joy

Body
We often get happiness and joy confused. Happiness is an emotion that is often tied to our circumstances. We experience happiness when something on the outside of our life goes well. We get the new car, our favorite team wins a game, or we get that fast food burrito that we have been craving. Joy on the other hand is something much deeper than happiness.

The Windthorst Trojans continued their usual district dominance, going a perfect 6-0 in district for the second year in a row and making it all the way to the Regional Semifinals round. The Holliday Eagles also took home their district championship, ending the year 5-0 for the fifth consecutive season while marching through the playoffs with a State Quarterfinals appearance.
