Prayer & Praise:
Thanks to everyone who came to the Soup & Chili Lunch to support the team going to Costa Rica yesterday. The team was able to raise $1,500! Thank you to the parents of the team members for setting up, providing soup/chili & desserts, and then for cleaning everything up.
Parents, each student was given a wordless book bracelet to remind them to pray for the team going to Costa Rica; for the students going to St. Louis; and for the 3 students staying behind to work on the ACS yearbook. We would like them to wear them until the students come back on March 15th. Please help them to remember to pray. Any parent who would like a bracelet for themselves can pick them up at the office.
Praise. Katherine Wassam, 11th grade, was accepted as a STAND Exceptional Teen for the 2010 - 2011 school year. Congratulations Katie!
