Chapel: Pastor Mueller led us with a Psalm and the Biblical account of Jesus’s transfiguration. As Jesus stood in all His glory on the mountain, a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love. Listen to Him.” Pastor invited kids to come up and act out some Bible narratives, such as the healing of the lame man, Mary annointing Him and weeping at His feet, and Jesus talking to the thief on the cross. Each time, He proclaimed forgiveness. We should also listen to Him as He proclaims forgiveness to us! We rejoice in His mercy!
As part of the Ash Wednesday chapel service on March 5th, the children may participate in the imposition of ashes. If you do not want your child to participate, please let his/her teacher know. The children do not have to participate if they do not wish to. If you have any questions, please get in touch with the school office. Chapel service will be held in the sanctuary at 8:40 am. Parents are welcome to attend.

National Lutheran School Week, March 9-14: Please read the Hope Happenings for all the fun dress days and special activities that have been planned for our celebration.
Verse to Remember: Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-3
