November 3rd Note



  • November 3rd Note

    The students will begin to study what God says about different topics in their new Christ Light books. Topics include; homosexuality, abortion, euthanasia, war, and animal rights. Many in our society today make claims that we are eliminating basic rights when we speak against these things. Some try to paint those who speak against gay marriage, killing of unborn children, and of the elderly as intolerant. It is important to take a closer look as to what our Lord says in His Word.

    Calendar Notes
  • This Wednesday we will dismiss at noon to accommodate for travel for our Teachers’ Conference. There will be no school Thursday and Friday. Homeroom services will be available, starting at noon on Wednesday.
  • Friday, Nov. 14th is a noon dismissal due to Teachers’ Collaboration.
