Week 26: A Time to Serve

Parents - Please remember COLD LUNCH on Tuesday for our MO History Museum field trip.
                 Look for the Grandparents Day yellow invitation and white  dismissal form that came 
                 home today.  Please return the latter when you know your plans for the day.

Blessed to Serve!
A group of our 6th graders jumped rope today to help the American Heart Association.  Mrs. Steinbacher reported they did a wonderful job and was thrilled with their efforts!

The rest of us got outside on this gorgeous day and picked up litter around the campus.  With plastic gloves and keen eyes we filled more than 10 plastic grocery bags.  Who knew there were so many bits of paper, wrappers, cups, and ODD things.  Special cheers for the girls who took on the icky bag of lunch garbage that spilled outside the dumpster!!

Wednesday Chapel
 On Wednesday, Feb 24, 6R will help with our chapel service.  Some will perform the chancel skit: 'Temptation and Consequences" and lead the service.  Others are helping research more about where our chapel offerings go and will be encouraging stewardship among our schoolmates with motivational posters and PA announcements in the coming weeks.  It's exciting to see students serve in this way. Chapel is from 8:10-8:45 if you are able to join us.  Parents are welcome every week!
