Well, we're now fully in the "Swing" of the Spring semester! I have been relieved of one class, and it was replaced by a tutoring session of accelerated 6th grade math students (only 2). It's only 2 days a week. Chris is in the big middle of the budget for the next year. He has been really working hard on this one.
We had a week off this week for Carnival Break! How wonderful! We went to the waterfalls on Monday with some other friends. It was nice! Thursday and Friday are inservice days, but not preparations for students. Very nice to have some extra time off! AND SLEEP! :)
Please pray for us:
*The BUDGET!! We will be losing a lot of students this June due to embassy transfers. We are praying for students to replace them.
*SMASH - We are praying for our kids not to lose focus during these months ahead. We are thrilled to have a committed core group of about 15-17. But we pray for the additional 10 to become more committed. Not to treat SMASH as a social hour, but as a place of Spiritual Guidance and refreshment.
*Upcoming SMASH Retreat! We are very excited about planning our 3rd retreat! Please pray for us and the kids!
*Our continued discipleship.
*God's continued Direction and Clarity to be known.
BIG PRAISE!!
*We are so thankful for our time on Tuesday nights! We have Piper and Pizza! :) A small group of staff are now meeting together on Tuesday nights to listen to John Piper and eat Pizza. We have been so blessed by the AMAZING Refreshment of a Pastor that speaks with true authority from God. Around here, it is incredibly difficult to find spiritual refreshment!
