Remember...

There is no HALFTIME this week. I hope everyone is enjoying their spring break. We can't wait to see you again on March 25th.

March 25 will be the last day to turn in stuffed animals, ink cartridges, and old cell phones for our missionaries. Call the church office and ask for Gina Orr or Jeni Gibbs if you have any questions about what we are collecting.

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

Have an AWESOME week!

A Parents Prayer

They're only little once.
Grant me the wisdom to guide them down the path that their feet should take.
For I know that they can never turn back and walk those paths with me again.
Give me the wisdom to guide their feet so that someday they'll be able to walk alone.
They're only little once.
Give me the time I need to enjoy them.
For I know that after they're grown, I'll never have another chance
to tell stories and pretend at those tea parties.
I'll never have another chance
to watch them in a school play or sing in church, or to see them catch that first fish or score that first goal or hit that first home run ball.
Give me the time in life's busy schedule to have fun with my children.
They're only little once.
Let me be a loving parent.
Let me correct and not just punish, explain and not merely scold.
Let me know when to correct, and how often, and when it's best to just look the other way.
Help me be patient and give me a gentle hand to mould them into better people.
They're only little once.
Let me be a good teacher and an even better example.
Give me the right words and deeds to teach them.
Help me to teach them about You and how to walk in Your ways
so that when they are old they will not depart from Your ways.
For they're only little one time,
only innocent and trusting and pliable for a space of time, one minute in an eternity.
Let me do my best for them while I have the chance.
Amen

New check in procedures

A couple weeks ago we started a new check in system. All 3 year olds- 5th grade will check in at the Playhouse tables before going to their class. The Playhouse is located to the left of the restrooms. Each child must have a sticker name tag (found at the Playhouse) before entering their class.

Our Preschool House is located in room 14.

Little House (K-2nd grade) meet in room 8.

Big House (3rd-5th grade) meet in room 15 and 16.
