Chapel: Today Mrs. Schade read from Luke 1 in which Zechariah foretold of Jesus’s purpose in coming to the earth“…the Lord God…has raised up a horn of salvation for us.” The horn represents the announcement of power. Jesus rules over the power of sin, death, and the devil and will provide for our needs. We read litanies, which we learned are like a list of wants and needs offered up to God. We trust Jesus to answer our prayers as He has promised because we have seen the power of answered prayer. We were reminded that every part of Creation is given a purpose and praises God by fulfilling His purpose for them. When we pray to God we each receive strength to fulfill our purpose. Pastor Mueller followed our worship time by blessing the Operation Christmas boxes that are packed and ready to be sent to children around the world!
Verse to remember: “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” – Matthew 6:19
Jackets/coats- Cooler temperatures have arrived. Please remind your child to bring a jacket or coat. When temperatures are below 50, a jacket is required in order to participate in outdoor recess. Thank you.

The Christmas season is coming! At Hope we have always done a Christmas Program where our students share the good news of the birth of Jesus Christ. The teachers are starting to prepare for the Christmas program. The Kindergarten – 2nd grade program is on Thursday, December 11th at 6 PM, and the 3rd – 8th grade program is on December 18th at 6 PM.
Stony Point North Elementary
The 7th & 8th grade students have the opportunity to provide a Christmas celebration for physically and developmentally disabled students attending Stony Point North Elementary School in KCK. Many of these students are in foster care, and for many of them, these gifts will be their entire Christmas. Money can be dropped off in the school office. There is a need for at least $2,000 for 27 students at Stony Point. The 7th & 8th graders thank you in advance for your support. The collection deadline is Friday, December 5th.
