Important Notes

Thank you for all your help with our field trip last week and the Christmas service this last weekend! They were both wonderful ways for you and your children to cherish the message of Christmas and share it! Our 1st grade Christmas Party will be on December 20th. We will have a Christmas lunch at 11:30, recess, then cookie decorating and a gift exchange. The students will be exchanging gifts for our party. Please purchase a gift in the $6-$8 range. Girls should buy a girl gift, and boys should buy a boy gift. Please put who the gift is from on the outside of the package. Please have the gifts at school anytime before Dec. 20th. At the party we will pick names to see who gets each gift.

Jesus Give Away


I want to wish you all a wonderful Christ-filled Christmas! What an amazing miracle we find in our Saviorhis birth by the Holy Spirit, his humility, and his undeserved love for us. One word that might capture this miracle is grace (underserved love) We hear God say, My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. 2 Corinthians 12:9 Picture Jesus, a gift of undeserved love, in the manger. He was perfect, yet in the form of a helpless newborn and suddenly you see that it is trueJesus is all I need. May He fill you with His grace this Christmas! Miss Luehring
