Hello ACS,
Mrs. Furrey is home from the hospital and wishes to thank
everyone for their prayers. She will still be out of school for a few more
weeks so please continue praying as she recovers. If anyone is interested in
supplying meals for the family, there is a sign-up sheet on the office door.
Thank you!
Please keep our basketball teams in prayer as they have
traveled to Oklahoma City for the National Christian Homeschool Regional
tournament. They left yesterday morning and will be returning Saturday.
Yesterday, the boys lost their game and the girls won. Good luck, teams!
