A reminder that for in the classroom the dress code allows students to wear a Zion Sweatshirt or a solid color sweater.  Thank you.

We have now purchased 11 Bibles.  I talked to the class that if they want to earn money for Bibles that they could ask you for a special job for money. This is a good way to help children learn how to service for other, spending their time and money for others.

 We continue to learn about how God loves and cares for His people.  We are so thankful for a loving and caring God.

Take time this weekend to strengthen you faith.  Please make church and Bible study a priority!  Worship and learn more about our loving and caring God.

In HIM,
Amy Bernhardt
