2019 First Faith Cookie Contest and Christmas Program
We are getting ready for the most wonderful time of the year...the First Faith cookie contest and Christmas program! If you would like to participate in the cookie contest, please read the following details carefully:
- Your contest cookies MUST be homemade (nothing purchased from the store or bakery) and they must be peanut free!
- Please make a total of at least 30 cookies - 6 should be placed in a Ziploc bag for the judges to sample, and the other 2 dozen should be placed on a plate for serving at the milk & cookie party.
- Please bring all contest cookies to the preschool office on Wednesday, Dec. 4th or Thursday, Dec. 5th by 10:00am! If we do not receive your cookies by 10:00am on Thursday 12/5, they will not be included in the contest.
- Cookie contest winners will be announced at the Christmas program!
If you do not wish to participate in the cookie contest, we ask that you still bring 2 dozen cookies to donate for the milk & cookie party immediately following the program. Donated cookies can be either homemade or store bought, but please remember they must be peanut free. Cookie donations can be dropped off in the preschool office or placed on the table near the entrance to the nursery wing (at the opposite end of the preschool hall).
The Christmas program will take place later that evening on Thursday, December 5th at 6:00pm in the sanctuary. The children will be singing old and new Christmas songs with a preschool spin (of course). Children should be dressed in their Christmas attire (Sunday best). All students are participating in the program, so please plan to drop your child off in their classroom by 5:40pm that evening. Of course, please plan to stay for our annual milk & cookie party in the gym after the program!

Class Christmas Parties and Pajama Days
Mark your calendars because our class Christmas parties and pajama days are coming up on December 17th/18th! Dress your kiddo in their favorite pajamas and come join us for a fun time! Please check with your child's class room mom or teacher for the exact date & time of their party. The room moms are working hard to plan fun and festive parties, so be on the lookout for communication from them and ways you may be able to help. Also, please remember the primary focus of our parties is on the birth of Jesus (and not Santa Claus). On the day of the parties, there will be sign-in tables located at both entrances. Please be sure to sign in and receive a visitor pass upon entering the building. Looking forward to seeing everyone!!

Best Book Fair Ever!!
Thank you to all who participated in our Scholastic Book Fair last month! Our gross sales totaled over $4,400 which means First Faith received almost $1,100 in cash for our school...that's the most we've ever earned! We also received enough donations to All for Books that we were able to purchase ALL the books on every teacher's wish list! WOW!!
Thanks again to Ashley Sutton for coordinating all the details of the book fair, and to all the volunteers and parents who made this fair such a success! We could not have done it without each and every one of you!!
A BIG Thank You!!!
