Grace Noel

Hey, I’m Grace and I'm a senior at ECHS. I have one semester left of high school, and I am so excited to graduate! I’ve been busy applying for scholarships, and I will be making my college decision soon. I have been able to grow in new and old friendships while making lots of memories. I’ve been able to enjoy my senior soccer season, attend the Passion Conference, and start my new after-school care job at school. I can’t wait to see what God does in the future! (1-6-24)

Hey, I’m Grace and I’m a junior now at ECHS. This year will be full of college prep and college tours, which is both exciting and terrifying, but I am really enjoying spending time with friends :-) Recently, I’ve been babysitting a lot and working at Copperhouse. I have enjoyed going to Bible studies, meeting with a mentor, and going to youth group. I have faith the Lord will give me wisdom in finding a college that will be the best fit for me! (1-15-23)

Hey, I’m Grace and now I’m a freshman at ECHS. I recently just got my permit, and I'm really excited :-) Next week, I have midterms which is a big jump from only having two last year, but that’s high school. This year so far has been pretty strange with COVID, but I’m so thankful to still be able to play soccer and spend time with friends. This fall, our high school girls' soccer team won the national Christian tournament! I’m looking forward to Christmas break and the new year! (12/11/20)

Hey, I'm Grace. This past year, a lot has happened. I'm 14 years old and an 8th grader at ECS. I'm now at the Epworth Campus and went to Washington DC in October. I had my first dance and first midterms (eek), but I have also had plenty of time to joke around and have fun with my friends. I participated in soccer (indoor and outdoor), track, leadership club, and went to lots of orthodontist appointments. :-) During the summer, I joined a travel soccer team, Sporting Southern Indiana (SSI), for the first time. I can now say I love it here. I'm excited and looking forward to this brand new year and going to high school soon! (1/1/20)

Hi! I'm Grace, a 13-year-old 7th grader at ECS. I got baptized several months ago, and I recently took a babysitting class. I'm now a certified Safe Sitter. :-) I learned a lot of skills, and I hope I can use them to help others. Spending time and laughing with my friends this year has been so much fun. Soccer and artwork are still my favorite things to do, especially coloring. This year I have grown a lot spiritually, mentally, and physically. For 2019, I have set goals for myself, and I'm looking forward to the new year! (12/29/18)

Hi, I'm Grace. I am a 12-year-old 6th grader at Evansville Christian School (ECS). The move here was hard, but I couldn't have asked for a better school. My friends are amazing, and I'm so glad that I have such good friends. I still love to play soccer and do artwork, and I am getting better. I play for ECS, and I'm in the art club. I don't play the piano anymore, but I now play the alto saxophone for my band. Currently, candy and instant noodles are still at the top of my favorite foods list. I like to watch movies, and I recently watched a few Star Wars movies. The snowy owl is my favorite animal, and I still want a pet. I can't believe it's 2018 - this year has gone by fast. I do miss my life in China and always will, but I've had a great time here. I can't wait to see what this next year holds! (1/1/18)

Hi! I'm Grace. I speak Chinese and English. Now I'm in fourth grade and ten years old. I go to TIS, a terrific school. I like movies, but not movies that are too violent. I like to play soccer and play outside with my friends. Each year there is a TIS program for kids who like soccer, and we practice every Saturday. We play for about one hour and at the end of the season, we compete in a tournament with other schools. It was fun to play soccer on a team with my friends. Playing outside is fun when it's winter because the ponds and canals in our neighborhood freeze, and I play on them with my friends. Playing the piano isn't that fun, but it's fun when I get to play songs that I want to play. :-) My favorite things to eat are candy (especially gummy bears and marshmallows) and instant noodles. Drawing is one of my favorite things to do, and I like pets and animals. (12-30-15) It's almost 2016!

Hi! I'm Grace. Now that I'm 9 and in third grade, I have different opinions. I don't like barbies, but the movies are ok. I still speak Chinese and English. When I'm in America I like to go fishing with my dad. In China, I enjoy eating yummy Chinese food. Now my favorite food is noodles and candy. My favorite type of candy is sour kinds of gummies. I have an iPad now so sometimes I play games on it. I like to play outside when it's winter because the water in my neighborhood gets frozen. I love playing on it and breaking it. I actually have never fallen on the ice! I sometimes enjoy playing the piano. Boz movies are okay now, but I enjoy watching them with my baby brother, Josiah. I'm not that picky about what I wear, but I now want to wear dresses only on special occasions. I love animals like cats, horses, and dogs such as huskies and golden retrievers. My favorite thing to do is draw and play. (1/3/15)

I really like to wear dresses. I like to draw. I like Boz movies, but not as much as before. We gave away all of our Barbies so now I don't play with them. I really like Christmas because it is when we celebrate when Jesus was born. (12/28/11)

I speak Chinese, and I speak English. I really like America, and I like China. I really like to go on my bike sometimes. My favorite food is shrimp and marshmallows. I really like to play outside with my ayi (helper) if she is at my home. I really like to play video games on my dad's iPhone. I really like to help my mom cook sometimes. My sister sometimes has good ideas, and sometimes I like them. I really like to watch DVDs on the weekends. I really like Boz movies. I like to play the piano. I really like to play with my Barbies. I really like to read books, especially library books. My favorite stuffed animal is my bee. I really want to get baptized. I really like dogs, but they are a lot to take care of. And I like cats. I have something that looks like a purse. It talks about what school is like. (3/10/11)
