In Our Prayers: These are the Lutheran schools in the Michigan District that we will be praying for the week we get back from spring break:
- St. Peter Lutheran School in Saint Johns
- Trinity Lutheran School in Saint Joseph

Devotion of the Week: During this season of Lent, we again reflect on our sinful condition and the redeeming sacrificial death and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We are so blessed to be FORGIVEN because of what Jesus has done for us. It is a reminder that is a necessity in our lives of chaos, confusion, and even catastrophic events. If it were not for Christ, we would be left to suffer the consequence of our sinful nature. But we are assured that "God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son!" Thanks be to God for the forgiveness we so desperately need daily. In hymn LSB 571 we are reminded:
Be of good cheer, for God's own Son
Forgives all sins which you have done;
And, justified by Jesus' blood,
Your Baptism grants the highest good.
May God continue to be with us during this season of Lent, as we walk to the cross with Him knowing that we are FORGIVEN and redeemed because He paid for all of our sins.
Serving in Worship: The Cherub Choir (2nd-4th grade) will sing in church on Sunday, April 2. Please have your child in the multi-purpose room at 9:10am to warm up. Thank you!
Chapel Offerings: Jesus’ last words to his disciples in Acts 1:8 were “to the ends of the earth.” World Mission believes those words are extremely important and is why they focus their ministry in the hard-to-reach places of the world where people have never heard of the name of Jesus. Any money collected for World Mission can be brought in after spring break. Thank you for your prayers and support of World Mission, this year’s Hearts for Jesus campaign. Thank you also to Mrs. Morris for providing all of the information about this chapel offering project during the last three months.
Holy Week: We will be in Holy Week when we return after spring break. Below are our worship services during the week.

Artist of the Month: For the month of March, Cooper McQueen, Kindergartener, is our artist of the month. His works of art are featured in the hallway, outside the 7th-8th grade classroom. Congratulations, Cooper!
Designed by God: While studying human body systems, the 5th and 6th graders researched information, created slideshows, studied each of the systems, and ultimately made an illustrative model sharing what they have learned!

March Reading Month: Our month long celebration of reading concluded yesterday with a schoolwide assembly (students were also encouraged to wear red). Students were challenged to accumulate points by reading as many books as possible. The points that they earned were cashed in for duct tape in order to tape Mr. Wolter to the gym wall! As you can see in the picture, our students met their goal! It took 1,454 pieces of duct tape (about 3' long each) to stick Mr. Wolter to the wall and keep him there while he read a book to the students. Thank you to Mrs. Kelley Fehn, Mrs. Kaeleen Homrich, and Mr. Anthony Wolter for planning and organizing our March Reading Month. |
