This may have been a short week, but it has been very busy with special activities! We are getting excited about the Read-a-thon beginning!<\/strong> If you have not already done so, please click on this link to activate your reader\u2019s personal page:\u00a0https:\/\/www.read-a-thon.com<\/a>\/readers<\/a>\/r\/313137323738<\/a>\u00a0Activation takes less than a minute. Just by doing so, you can help us meet our fundraising goal. \u00a0Students in the whole school are competing and have the opportunity to win different prizes all week long. Students will also earn class awards for activating their page and for each $10 they raise. Friends and family can even support your child by donating to their page. Our goal is for each child to raise at least $160. Our classroom goal is $2,600 to purchase a new laptop computer. Every dollar donation helps us to reach our goal! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Memory for April 10<\/strong>:\u00a0 The Third Article: Sanctification<\/strong>
What does this mean?\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0(Part 3)<\/em>
In this Christian church He daily and richly forgives all my sins and the sins of all believers.
On the Last Day He will raise me and all the dead, and give eternal life to me and all believers in Christ.
This is most certainly true.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
