I hope you had a wonderful weekend.  I had a busy weekend.  I celebrated my Mom.  It was seven years ago since she passed away.  We also helped my sister move, and we had a birthday party for my brother-in-law.

6th Grade Environmental Classroom News
This week the 6th grade Environmental Classroom students are working feverishly on their survival shelters at Camp Roger.  The shelters must be built strong and secure in order to survive the harsh winter elements that soon will be here.  In Bible class, the students are also learning how God is our shelter and how He protects each of us—our Shelter from the stormy blast and our eternal home.
