Happenings on the Hill
MHBS 5-12 Communications/February 3, 2017
Middle School Musical is Here!
Attn: Parents of Accelerated Readers
Our Mars Hill AR program now has tests on 13 of Kyle Butt’s books written especially for children. Check the Mars Hill Bookstore or your child’s library at MHBS for these titles: Am I Ready to be Baptized?, Amazing Copies of God’s Design, Amazing Dinosaurs Designed by God, Dinosaurs Unleashed, God Made Plants, God Made Sea Creatures, God Made the World, God Made You, How Do You Know God is Real?, How Do You Know the Bible is from God?, I’m a Christian. What’s Next?, A Man Who Loved Money, and A Patient Man from Uz.
Also, there are tests on books of the Bible, except for Psalms, Proverbs, and Song of Solomon. We recommend that students wait until middle school to attempt these tests because they are more difficult.
#PrayForCole
Earlier in the school year the National Junior Honor Society had chosen St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to be the recipient of their fundraising for community service. After learning of Cole Kelley’s medical condition, members voted unanimously to redirect the funds to his family. The middle school organization had already raised over $850 this year. President Cooper Howton has announced the next bake sale is scheduled for February 13-14 during both middle and high school lunch periods. Please support this effort to help one of our own Mars Hill families.
MHBS will be hosting a blood drive in honor of Cole on Friday, February 10, 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. A sign-up sheet is in the Grades 5-12 office for those willing to give.

Thus says the Lord, "Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts boast in this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in these things I delight, declares the Lord." Jeremiah 9:23-24 (ESV)
