Teacher Spotlight
In her spare time, Mrs. Winter enjoys walking, cross stitching, and doing puzzles. Mrs. Winter did not play any sports growing up, and she is not a spectator by nature, but she does find basketball to be interesting. When asked who she looks up to she said, '' I look up to my close friends who are sisters in Christ". Thank you for teaching and being a part of CCA. -Audrey

Bring Your Bible to School-October 5th
Bring Your Bible to School Day is an annual, student-led celebration that empowers Christian students to live out their faith. All it takes are two simple steps—bringing your Bible to school and sharing what God’s Word means to you!
CCA students are encouraged to bring their Bible from home to school on Thursday, October 5th. This should be a fun event to see how many Bibles from home we can have here at CCA! The theme verse for this event this year is: "Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth."
Donuts with Dad for K4-6th is Coming Up...
CCA Chapel
God does miraculous things! In the story of the 5,000, Jesus was the hero, but so was the boy who gave his lunch. Without the boy's sacrifice, Jesus would not have had the resources to feed the 5,000. Jonathan told us that we must strive to be like the boy; be eager to help God and help others. We must be an example to those around us, young or old. He ended with encouraging us to show God through all we do and let God use our unique talents and abilities to glorify Him. We concluded chapel with the school song. -Vivian
