Happy New Year - Weekly Blog

"We have seen his star in
the East and have come to worship him."

 Sunday marks the celebration of the wisemen's visit to Bethlehem.  We call this season Epiphany.  An “epiphany” is an appearance or manifestation- a showing.  But the wonder  that brought the wisemen to Bethlehem was more than the appearance of a star.  It was the manifestation of God Himself, born as a baby, taking on human flesh and with that, taking upon Himself our sins.   Can we think of Christmas without remembering Good Friday?  That wonder that led the wisemen and now leads us to worship Him - the wonder of his love!

R.A.K.'s  

6R is taking on the challenge to perform "Random Acts of Kindness" around our school, homes and community.  Students are looking for the little, unexpected things to do to help someone out or show an extra bit of attention or care for someone else.   Because of God's great love for us, we can "SHINE" His love to others in little, thoughtful ways.

Field Trip Friday

Friday marks our field trip to Edison Theatre at Wash U. to see the play "Jackie and Me."  Permission slips came home today with further information.  Please return them Monday or Tuesday.
