The FLEC Flyer | September 4, 2009 | Week 3

From the Principal...

Dear Parents,

Another exciting week, another opportunity to collaborate in theministry of education. How exciting it was to visit with many of ourparents in grades 3 – 5 at the Home & School potluck. The excitement

in the room was electrifying. By the way, the food was delicious and the fellowshipsweet.

Here is our Bible promise for the week:

“The peace of God is much greater than the human mind can understand. This peace willkeep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:7

May the upcoming week be one in which you may truly sense God’s strength andprotection.

Blessings,

Janet Ledesma

SHARING OUR FAITH In all that we do, in times of joy, disappointment and frustration, I am glad for thecommitment to seek God's plan.

There is a simple but life-changing truth that our immeasurable value rests solely inthe fact that God created us, that His stubborn love sets us apart and the amazingfact that He designed and empowers a unique plan for each one of us. It is mydesire that we can go deeper with accepting and trusting in that plan.

Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you. Before you were bornI set you apart!”

Each one of us has a life plan. The interesting thing is that everyone else has a planfor your life, as well right? But the only plan that matters is the plan made for youby the One who formed you - the One who loves you, knows you and has set youapart to be His own. And it is a great plan!

Psalm 139: 16 You saw me before I was born and scheduled each day of my lifebefore I began to breathe. Every day was recorded in your book!

Families take a deep breath. Inhale the beauty of the Lord and let His strength flowthrough you. Release all your concerns into his hands and know that your life isalready in the best hands possible. The One who actually wrote the book on it.

In His Spirit,

Melissa KellerHome & School Association Leader

Development Report

Have you tried the new Road?!


4 of 6 9/4/2009 9:19 AM

Yesterday, 3:00 p.m. I had to get back oncampus. The thought: “It’s going to be anightmare deadlock of traffic!” Not so!Amazement – traffic is moving smoothly andquickly! What’s different? No school? Earlydismissal?” Then I saw it – cars using the newroad.

“Aha! pick-up has begun from the new road behind the school! Great! OurDonation Dollars already at work!”

So, if you haven’t already, drive the back road – you’ll see your “Donation Dollars”at work! While it hasn’t relieved all the congestion or solved all the problems, it hasgone miles towards making afternoon pickup an easier, quicker process. And, in thebigger picture, we can see how wonderful it will be when our new wing is built andthe Jr. High grades are permanently housed there.

Continue your prayers, support, and thoughtful consideration of what your familycan do to make this dream come true, completely!

Dan Tilstra, Development Director
