A Spring Prayer
Spring is a metaphor for change.
Some changes we eagerly await, and some we abhor.
Some changes we plan and others arrive uninvited.
To all these changes we ask the gift of Your perspective, beckoning us to
expectation, hope, and rebirth.
May the sunlight and the rain be reminders that You are at work renewing the earth.
As a God of renewal, You are ever at work in our lives, too.
Open our eyes and lives to the needed changes in our lives this Spring.
Awaken us to new life and perspective, for we pray in Jesus' name.
Amen.
News and Notes
Dear SHGS Families,
Happy Spring!!
I hope you all enjoyed a wonderful first weekend of Spring!
While the temperatures are certainly getting warmer, please be sure to have your child wear a coat to school, since we try to get outside for a bit each day and that breeze is still very chilly.
Warm Regards,
Tracy Strub
