Thank you for modeling such amazing service and generosity to your children throughout the school year. I know this time of year seems to be heavily loaded with giving and your children are learning just how important it is to have a servant's heart. Here are a few updates of service opportunities happening at Zion.
Chapel Offering 2016-2017
We continue to collect offering during chapel on Wednesday, however our classroom has a jar where offering can be brought in at anytime! As a school we are trying to by a Bible for each preschool classroom in the country of Belize. We have reached 220 out of 600 needed. Each Bible cost $11. Our class alone has brought in $55 toward that goal -- keep collecting loose change and support this mission.
Jr. High USO Project
Our jr. high service project supporting the USO continues (walk-a-thon back in Sept.) as we collect needed items for comfort bags given to troops as they travel from airport to airport. *See picture below of needed items. This project is in the place of students exchanging Christmas gifts. If every student could donate a $5-10 gift we could pack LOTS of comfort bags for our troops.
Thanksgiving GIVING!
Zion's Thanksgiving food/items drive was a huge success and our student council members had a blast delivering the dinner boxes to the Seminarians who were overwhelmed with thankful hearts. Stucco was also able to stock the Seminary food bank selves with all extra items -- the selves went from bare to full in just a few hours time!
7th graders worked hard to master the 3D effect using shading and blending techniques on their last art project. Nice job!
Christmas wreaths are due ...
7C Wednesday the 31st
7M Friday the 2nd
Blessings on your Thanksgiving celebrations, may they be a time of relaxation and fun with family and friends,
