Hello ACS, February
15, 2012
I begin this week’s bulletin on a personal note to
explain why the bulletin is posted on a Wednesday and not a Friday. Some of you
may know that my husband and I travel to Mardi Gras each year. (Yes, I did say
Mardi Gras!) My father-in-law has been leading mission trips there for over 30
years; my husband, Jon, has been assisting him for 14 years. This will be my
fifth year to be a part of the team.
Not only will I be attending, but Mrs. Sparks, Mrs.
Bussey, Mr. and Mrs. Cloud and others from Katy Park Baptist Church and
Cornerstone Baptist Church will be traveling with us. We will join several
others of our team in Branson, MO and Grenada, MS. We will be leaving early
Friday morning and returning late Wednesday night. Your prayers would be
greatly coveted. Please pray for safety, health, and softened hearts. Thank you
so much!
It is wonderful to be in a workplace that understands
Christian ministry and missions, and actually encourages it! As with
encouraging missions, please don’t forget to support the Costa Rica mission
team Tuesday night at El Tapitio.
Snow Days/ One Calls: Everything seemed to go very smoothly for our first
snow day. If you did not receive the one call, please call the office so that
we can double check our one call roster.
Sick Days/ Appointments: We have had several out the last month with the
strain of flu circulating the city. This is just a reminder to please call the
office in the morning to let us know if your child will be out sick or leaving
early or arriving late. Thank you! This just helps us in the office coordinate
with teachers for your child’s school work.
Valentine Party: Thank you to Jesters for allowing us to celebrate Valentine’s Day
there! Also, thank you to Mr. and Mrs. Nunes and all the other adults for
helping this day be a huge success.
Costa Rica Mission Trip Fundraiser: Tuesday, February 21 at El Tapitio from 5:00-9:00 pm;
they will receive 10% of all sales. Come support our high school students who
are going to Costa Rica this year.
Girls Soccer: First practice – Tuesday, Feb 28, 7:30 pm- in the ROC gym
