A NOTE FROM MRS. HYLAND
Dear Parents,
At this time of year, it's easy for me to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of all the activities the holidays bring. I have discovered I need to take time to pause and remember what a joyous celebration it is and should be. Our God loves us so much! It is my prayer that each of us make the choice to share His great love with those around us during this Christmas season.
And, let the Christmas celebrations begin as our students use their talents to praise God at the
annual Elementary Christmas Concert on Tuesday, December 12,
at 7:00 pm at Christ Church at Grove Farm. We would love to have your family, friends, and neighbors join us!
“
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men
on whom his favor rests
.” Luke 2:14
Blessings,
Kim Hyland
