“He will cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.”

Psalm 91:4

NOVEMBER 2018 NewsletterFROM THE PRINCIPAL

November is upon us; October flew by in a rush of student activities, learning, and staff conferences. Teachers have been incredibly busy since the start of the school term, please continue to pray for them. Report Cards will be sent home on October 31st; parent-teacher interviews will be November 1&2; please call the office to book a time slot. If you cannot come in during those days, please arrange a separate time with your child’s teacher. It was such a blessing to see so many volunteers in the school this last month; your help is essential to the operation and ministry of this school. Our volunteers are incredible! Within just a couple of weeks, they were able to commit to and organize a Christian book fair that will run over the course of this week and during parent-teacher interviews. Come on by and support our library!

As we look forward to all that November has in store for us, let’s take the time to pause and remember. Remember our many veterans; remember our loved ones who have gone to be with the Lord; remember all that God has promised us. Remember all that God has done for us; remember that love is characterized by sacrifice (John 15:13).

Ms. Jeffrey
