NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD!  Come to Zion’s VBS and bring a friend or two.  This is an awesome experience and a great way for your child to be a witness.  
SKY VBS is June 11-15.  I hope to see you there!!!

ARTSONIA:  Watch for their end of the year sale on portfolio books.  This is a great way to ‘save’ your child’s artwork from this year.  By Monday all artwork from this year should be uploaded and published on Artsonia.  Remember Zion gets a percentage of each purchase and I use that to fund the art in first grade.

WE LIKE SHEEP DVD
In your Friday folder you will find a copy of the We Like Sheep Musical.  There is one per family.  Thank you to Mr. Desemone and Mrs. Gilmore for videoing and copying the DVD.  I hope you enjoy watching and sharing the performance!

SIX FLAGS TICKETS:
If your child completed and turned in the 600 minutes of reading for Six Flags the tickets are in your  Friday Folder!  Please look for them and get them out!!!

I am so thankful to God for this school year.  It has been an absolute joy to share your children this year.  I have seen them grow so much and feel blessed that I was given the opportunity to teach them.  This is a wonderful class full of so many talented and unique personalities.  Thank you for partnering with me this year.  I feel that your children and you have become part of my family.  I will keep you in my heart and prayers.  I am overwhelmed to be named “Teacher of the Year” for St. Charles County.  Thank you to the parents who nominated me.  I am truly blessed and love coming to school everyday.  To God all praise and glory.

Your children are very passionate about praying; I have talked to them about taking home the church’s prayer requests and continuing to pray for those in need.  Please help them maintain an active prayer and worship life this summer.  Remember to take advantage of the various services that Zion offers.
Saturday at 5:00, Sunday at 8 and 10:30 and Monday at 7:00.
Thank you to Samuel’s Aunt, Mrs. Paul, for coming to our class and sharing with us some of God’s creatures.  Please look at the pictures of the critters she cares for at her work at Animal Rescue.


Thank you again for a wonderful school year.
In HIM,
Amy
