A message from our principal
First Week of Advent was the theme of this morning’s prayer service. The Gospel from Mark tells us that God wants us to “Be Alert” for the coming of His son. That is why we celebrate the season of Advent. Advent is a time of anticipation – of awaiting the coming of the Savior. It is a time of preparation, of making sure our hearts are right when the Messiah arrives.
Peace in Christ,
Dr. John Shreve
