Exams and Parties

 Happy Glorious Friday!

Here we are! We have made it through an entire semester!! I can't believe that our year is halfway over. Before we are off to celebrate Christmas with family and friends we must get through exams. 

The following is the exam schedule for MY classes. 

Tuesday Dec 14. : 8th Grade Girls Bible

Wednesday Dec 15: 6th Grade Boys Bible

Thursday Dec 16: 6th Grade Girls Bible and Drama

Friday Dec 17: 9th Grade Bible and 7th Grade Girls Bible

Reminder!! Thursday and Friday are early dismissal! School will release students at 12:00 p.m. THERE IS NO AFTERCARE on either of those days. 

Students have all been given study guides for their exam. They will remain in Bible next semester, so their exam will only be a midterm. 

A HUGE thank you for your families participation in the can food drive and the angel tree project. Both were VERY successful. Our angel tree child received toys, shoes, a coat and clothes!!! I can only imagine her sweet face on Christmas morning!! LCS collected over 4000!!! cans!! Our students had so much fun loading the trucks that headed over to CUOC! Those cans will help feed families right here in Sanford, NC!! How exciting is that! I am so thankful and proud to be a FALCON!

I have grown to love each and every student that is in my class. While we may all interpret the Bible differently, thank you for entrusting me to lead and teach your precious one. I hope that you each have a wonderful break and I encourage you to share the truth about why we celebrate this holiday. It is more than a holiday! It is GOD in the form of a baby! A baby boy who would grow into a man. This man teaches us by example of how to treat one another, how to love well, how to resist temptation, how to pray and fast! He is the perfect example to us! He then would give His life willingly so that we can have hope for a future. Not a future here on earth, but for eternity with Him. As I gave at my tree and and the star that tops it, I can only imagine the glory that shine when I see my Savior face to face. I long for that day! Merry Christmas Falcon Family!!! 

Blessings,

 Hello Parents, 

The last two years have been very difficult on so many families that we love. We have been seperated from our families. My husband and I were finally able to go visit his Mom after two years! This virus has robbed us of time and loved ones that we have unfortunately lost. Many families have lost jobs, my sister just this week, lost her job of 19 years. The holiday has a way of making us sad and satan throws in our face that when the Lord takes away, He hates us or He is punishing us. Let me reassure you that the Lord is for you, not against you. Join me in using this time to teach our students that we must find joy, even in the hardships. 

Many of our students participated in serving at the Bread Basket here in Lee County. Can I just tell you, the JOY on our students faces when they seen how appreciative their community was for them to serve was AMAZING!! Let's continue that! Here are two opportunities to serve. 

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. Right now we only have two gifts collected for her. Please help! 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. 

Lastly, I encourage you to take the time as a family to celebrate the birth of a baby that changed the world for each of us. This baby, Jesus, the long awaited Messiah came to earth to be the sacrificial lamb for our sins. To leave His place in heaven so that you and I can have the hope of salvation and not face the punishment that really should be ours, is, well, it should leave us speechless. Overwhelmed with thansgiving and JOY! Joy that cannot be contained. 

Have a wonderful weekend!!

Ephesians 1:9-14

God loved you, chose you, created you, adopted you, purchased you, redeemed you, forgave you, and sealed you. You are His. There is nothing you did to earn these spiritual blessings. They are solely rooted in His character, desire, and good pleasure.
