MCA Weekly Wrap-Up!
Primary & KinderPrep Family News -October 4, 2019
Dear Families,
It has been an exciting week at Maranatha! We had a lot of fun participating in some of the Homecoming week festivities! Thank you for helping your students find all sorts of creative "spirit wear"! I hope many of you are able to go to the Homecoming games tonight. The weather has definitely turned a corner, and it is feeling more like fall! I had the opportunity this week to do some outside walk-and-talk with students, and it is officially jacket weather!
Our chapel speakers this week came from City Union Mission, and they spoke to our students about the opportunity they have to show the love of Christ through our upcoming City Union Mission food and toy drive. Look for a flyer to come home with more information about this service project spearheaded by our 6th graders. Because of the investment you have made in sending your children to Maranatha, they get to live out God's word in action.
Enjoy the fall weather and the Homecoming festivities this weekend with your families!
Blessings!
Mrs. Howell
