Thanks to everyone who went to Philadelphia with us. The students were very well behaved and a great time was had by all. It is wonderful to work with such cooperative, caring families.

We need a few students to sell during the play. (A parent has to remain with them, but doesn’t need to purchase a ticket.)

This week I have been pondering the verse:
‘God blesses those who are merciful, for they will be shown mercy.’ Matthew 5:7
It is a great reminder that our God is a loving, yet fair God. The more I give of myself, the more I bless others, the more I extend mercy, the more I will be blessed in return. It is easy in our crazy, busy, hectic lives to lose sight of the small merciful, compassionate things we can do or say to those around us each day. I pray God helps me show mercy when its needed. I pray others will be merciful to me when I desire it but don’t necessarily deserve it. Just a thought.
Enjoy the beautiful weather!! Mrs. Lively
