The 7th grade led us in our chapel today and presented a skit about Martin Luther’s courage at the Diet of Worms. Martin was asked to recant all of his writings, including the 95 Theses. Luther refused to go against his conscience and did not take any of it back knowing that he was teaching according to God’s Word. Luther stood up for the words found in Romans 3 : 19 – 28 that teaches, “But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law…through faith in Christ Jesus for all who believe.” May we all be willing to stand up for Jesus and live boldly by God’s Word!
We’re getting excited about the Hope Hero auction. Tomorrow is Hero Day, so dress as a favorite hero! The auction doors open at 4:00 this Saturday, and the fun begins! See you there!
We are preparing for our Veterans’ Day program, which is designed to serve and honor our veterans. Parents and Grandparents, we ask that you refrain from attending unless you are a veteran. Thank you for your understanding.
A flier was sent home last week about our “Christmas Families” donations. We will have our first collection day on Tuesday, November 12th, which is Bean and Fruit Day. Students in grades 4 – 8 are asked to bring 1 item: a jar of canned peaches, mandarin oranges, or pears (unsweetened or lite.) Thank you for serving the Lord in this way!
