Weekly Line-up
Cycle 1 Week 11
Hello my dear friends! It feels like we haven't seen each other in such a long time! My kiddos were very upset this morning when they woke up and realized it isn't a CC day! :) I hope you all had a wonderfully blessed time of Thanksgiving!
CONGRATULATIONS to the Rich family!! Their beautiful baby boy was born on November 23rd, Seth Malachi Rich weighed in at 9lbs 3oz. Christine sent an email with pictures of their newest precious gift, check it out - I guarantee you'll want to crawl into the email to snuggle him! (okay, okay, I know I have some serious baby fever...)
As I look forward to my goals for the coming year I've been reflecting on Hebrews 13:8. It's only a few words, but so profoundly life changing and awe inspiring. I wanted to share it with you below in the Word of Encouragement, I pray it will touch your heart as it has mine!
Director's Notes:
Don't Forget Your Tin Whistle - only 2 more weeks ;)
Student Presentation Changes - This is our last week of the demonstration presentations and the wonkie schedule. (yep, that's a real word!)
Essentials Parents - The last IEW Video of this semester is this Thursday! We'll watch during lunch and after Essentials. Thank you for having a plan for your children after Essentials. Please take a few minutes this week to reflect on your Essentials time with your student(s). We are going to take a few minutes for an activity and conversation. As we move into our Christmas break and the Spring semester, my goal is to hopefully encourage and re-energize you!
Please be in prayer over how you can serve our CC Community by helping with Info Meetings, Field Trips, Parties or Get-togethers, etc.
