NC weather truly is something. Last Thursday, we had an early dismissal for non-February weather, a baby copperhead made an appearance in the parking lot, and then high winds shut us down on Friday. Unprecedented stuff! Usually if we close in February, it's because of beautiful snow. God knows exactly what we need, when we need it, and He took care of our school during this time. He is sovereign over all. These beautiful words from Jeremiah put this idea into perspective.
" It is he who made the earth by his power, who established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the heavens. When he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he makes the mist rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain, and he brings forth the wind from his storehouses." (Jeremiah 51:15-16)
The Color Run was today! Thank you to everyone who pledged and to all who participated.
Ask your child about chapel. It has been truly amazing lately. Students now sit in a semicircle around the stage, which gives the feel of a body of worshippers rather than just rows of students. Local pastors, LCS teachers and staff, and students share their hearts and their musical talent with us each week. This past Wednesday, 7th graders Jared Alderson and Tyler Berndt recited scripture at the beginning of chapel, and 8th grader Connor Stone gave his testimony. Connor shared his battle with a life altering disease; he also shared that this disease won't beat him because he trusts in God to fight his battles.
6th grade: "this is just to say", due Feb. 20
7th grade: "I carry it in", due February 20; Phil. 4:8 due Feb. 28
8th grade: "Do it anyway", due March 26
Enjoy your long weekend! No school Monday - President's Day.
Blessings,
KD
