A NOTE FROM MRS. POWERS

Dear Wexford families,

Over the years, God has surrounded me with people who helped me to understand His love. My grandmother was one of those people. She was like many grandmothers. She loved to spend time with me and teach me how to color in the lines, count back change, and look someone in the eye when spoken to. She also taught me by example, by attending church regularly and praying with me.

What a wonderful privilege to be able to honor our grandparents for all they do for us. I hope all our special family members enjoyed the Grandparents Day activities this week.

“Show us your unfailing love, Lord, and grant us your salvation.” Psalm 85:7

Carrie A. Powers

Wexford Campus Principal
