A NOTE FROM MRS. POWERS

Dear Parents,

The weeks leading up to Thanksgiving have truly been amazing. " Totally Bananaz For Jesus" from Nashville, Tennessee led our chapel service on Wednesday. When they presented the gospel message, more than 20 students accepted Christ as their Savior for the first time! The angels are singing praises for each life that has been changed for eternity. On Thursday, five of our families sponsored a child in need through World Vision providing tangible help and God’s love. As we celebrated Thankful Thursday, we were reminded that blessings are like hugs from God to let us know how much He loves us and counting those blessings is like hugging God back. As part of our campus Thanksgiving celebration, students and staff gathered on Friday for the KFD-6th grade Thanksgiving Feast. (Preschool-Kindergarteners will gather this week.)
“Enter His gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise;
give thanks to Him and praise His name.” Psalm 100:4

How wonderful it is to reflect on the blessings we have been given! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Blessings,
Carrie A. Powers
