Please join us for chapel next Wednesday, March 27. A favorite guest of ours, Father Michael Nasser from St. Nicholas Orthodox Church, will lead us in reflecting on Loyalty in the Christian life.
Homework
For homework I am sending home a phonics page.
Our verse for March is Psalm 23:
The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever.
