Of Week #1!
And what a week of the Lord's faithfulness it was! So many highlights to reflect on including our first all school chapel of the year, lots of hugs and smiles, opportunities to pray with our classess, teachers, students, and staff, and our new primary lunchroom! Our Jr. Cougars are standing firm and shining bright as they learn and adjust to all the new that the first week of school brings!
And speaking of new! Has your Jr. Cougar shared with you about our brand new playgorund structure that was installed the weekend before our first day of school?
Special thanks to members of playground committee (The Allgyer Family, Mr. Yos, Mr. McGettigan, Mrs. Gardner, and Mrs. Booz) who shared their time, talents, and muscles to have it ready to play for the first day!
This year we have the blessing of experiencing a very special Getting to Know Day on Friday, September 13th when we host our first-ever all day Spiritual Emphasis Conference for our Jr. Cougars!
This day will be packed full of God's Word, singing, dancing, praising, praying, learning, growing while taking an Amazing Adventure through the Old and New Testament and hearing the life saving, heart changing message of the Gospel!
As we anticipate and prepare for this event, please join us in praying for this special day in the life of our Jr. Cougars and staff.
-Pray that each child will understand the power of God's Word and will "hide it in their hearts."
-Pray the our Jr. Cougars are drawn into God's presence and truly worship Him.
-Pray for students to say yes to Jesus.

Lastly, there is an Amazing Adventure store at the event with many resources that students can purchase to help them in their journey with Christ. None of the items avaiable for purchase are over $20 and many items are as low as $5. Jr. Cougars will have the opportunity to "shop" at the Amazing Adventure store the day of the conference. With parent permission students may bring spending money in an envelope or baggie labeled with their name on it the day of the conference to "go shopping."
Soccer Shots after school for grades 1 and 2 club begins on Tuesday, 9/10 and runs for 4 weeks. Parents are invited to stay or your child can go right to the soccer coach after school. HERE is the registration link.
