Mt. Nebo News
A NOTE FROM MR. AIKEN

We hope to see you at the All-School Chapel on  Wednesday, October 11. Parents are invited to attend   and we also invite all Mt. Nebo grandparents to the chapel at 12:45, at  Eden’s Wexford Campus   which is located inside  North Way Christian Community Church   (12121 Perry Highway, Wexford 15090). Students will be transported by bus from the Mt. Nebo Campus to chapel.
 
At the chapel we will hear from the Class of 2018 as they share their goals for the year. The Mt. Nebo Campus Praise Team will lead the entire school in worship and Mr. Hughes will give a message. At the conclusion of the chapel, at approximately 2:00, Mt. Nebo students are able to be dismissed with their parents or grandparents. All remaining students will be transported by bus back to the Mt. Nebo Campus for afternoon dismissal.
 
Praying for a blessed week!
