Christmas Time Is Here!

Good Afternoon Parents, 

I LOVE this time of year!! I am so excited and thankful that our little school is serving in such BIG ways. 
Over the last month we have collected and packed shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child. Our students have come to love this tradition just as much as the staff! Thank you for supporting this and helping us to share the gospel of Jesus Christ to children all around the world. 

But we are not stopping there! This year Lee Christian School has partnered with the Salvation Army to adopt a Lee County student from their Joy program. Our 6th grade class has adopted Sherlyn. Sherlyn is a 5 yr old girl from right here in Lee County! We will collect items to provide Sherlyn with the BEST Christmas. Here are the details on sweet little Sherlyn:

Need: Sweater, Shoes
Want: Gabby Dollhouse (This is not a dollhouse, this is a name of a cartoon. Walmart carries the product line).  I hope we shower her with Gabby Dollhouse toys!
Clothing: Girl
Shoe Size: 11
Coat Size: 7
Pants W: 7
TShirt Size: 6
Panties: 5
Dress Size: 7

All toys and clothing must be NEW and unwrapped. Please include the receipt for any clothing so they can be exchanged if they do not fit.  Thank you for being a part of this and loving our community. 

Canned Food Drive:
Our Senior Beta Club is collecting canned goods for the CUOC of Lee County. They CUOC provides food boxes every week for those in need. Students who bring in 5 cans will receive a memory verse test pass.  

See what I mean about our little school serving in such big ways! We are called to be the hands and feet of Jesus. I don't think there is a better way to teach our students this, than by serving our own community. We also took 20 students over two days to serve lunch at the Bread of Life. My heart is overflowing watching our students volunteer and step up to serve. 

As we head into this next week of celebrating Thanksgiving with our family and friends, I want personally thank you for your dedication to LCS. I appreciate each one of you and how well you support me as your students teacher. From quick notes or chats of encouragement, to suppling our class with clorox wipes, hand sanitizer and kleenex, to sending items for funderaising, YOU are appreciated!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I am thankful for each family who is a part of LCS!

May the Lord bless you and keep you!

In Christ, 
Nancy
