I hope you all had a good couple of snow days off!!

RCS Care & Concern

This is from the Haiti team
We know that there are many of you who have been praying for us and have committed to being our Prayer Partners, as well as financial partners, in this exciting journey so we thought the best way to stay connected to you was to start a blog. You can read this on your own time and visit us now and again to see what God is doing in our lives in preparation for this exciting journey. You can even leave us messages of encouragement! It’s like Facebook, but just for our team & those who are supporting us!! Right now, Lord willing, our trip is scheduled for March 18-26th, 2011.

Spanish phrase of the week
¿Dónde vives? Dohn-day vee-vays? (Where do you live?)

Vivo en Rockford. OR Vivo en Grand Rapids. Vee-voh en ______ (I live in_______.)

This is from Mrs. Tuit
“On Saturday, I had the opportunity to bring 9 pieces of student work to be juried for the Michigan Art Education Association Regional Art Show. Please congratulate the following 5 students as their artwork was chosen to be a part of this show and also represent RCS/GRCS!!!!

Coleen Leja - 4th
Emma Tuit - 5th
Mitch Mustert - 6th
Dylan DeVries- 6th
Henry Felver - 7th

The show is for the first time at the Grand Rapids Art Museum between the dates of February 22 - March 10. Not many young artist can say that they had artwork hanging at the GRAM! I am so proud of them! If you get a chance, this is a wonderful show to see of talented students from our 5 county region.”

Here is a link to the show information:

Also, the artwork of the following students will continue on to the State level, where it will be judged again and possibly be hung in Lansing this spring:

Emma Tuit

Henry Felver

I will let you know as soon as I know later this spring.
Artfully yours,
