We had a great time this morning at the moms' breakfast. If you weren't there, we missed you. One of the biggest take aways of the morning for me was all of our need for real and transparent community. I know that I am not Wonderwoman (I have a messy house, forget to wake my kids up because I am on the internet, hate to grade math assignments, and get frustrated with my whole family when they don't do exactly what my mind thinks they should!). Sometimes I can look at my failures and get discouraged- thinking that everyone else is Wonderwoman or at least close. I know that this is a lie from Satan. He wants us to be discouraged and alone. Let us strive to build a place where we can share ourselves with each other. I believe that as we share more and more, we will become encouraged and know that we are NOT alone. God has made us for community. He has made us to share our lives with each other so that HE will be glorified more and more. So, my challenge for us this Tuesday is to speak to someone and share yourself. We will all be blessed.
Highschool Retreat
This is going to be a great event. Please bring a sack lunch to the retreat. Dinner will be provided.
Noon
The back doors will be locked from noon on. Please be on time. Last week people missed announcements because they opened the door from 12:00-12:15 letting people in. Starting this Tuesday, no one will be at the door to open it during announcements. We will come and let in those that are late after announcements.
Gym, Kitchen and Walk-In
Please remember that the gym is a classroom. The moms and dads that teach PE are amazing. I believe that they have the hardest job at co-op. It is difficult to gain 36 kids attention at the same time anywhere, but it is especially difficult in a gym. Then when you add visiting moms at the end near the walk-in or at the kitchen counter it is more difficult. Let's try to get in and out of the gym as quickly and quietly as possible. We want you to visit, but just not in the gym.
Fire drill
We will have a fire drill this Tuesday. We will send an email out on Monday letting you know the procedure. Please speak to your kids about this so they are not surprised or nervous.
Save the Date
The Gunter Farm field trip is scheduled for October 24th. See Sheryl Crain for more details to come.
The Coffee Sitch
Coffee is not provided by LHE or the church...coffee is provided by YOU. Please pay for your coffee if you choose to drink it by placing $1 in the brown canister near the coffee maker in the foyer.
This month's coffee service will be a trial basis, hopefully it will work out great! If you have any questions on how to use the Keurig machine or if you'd like to donate toward the coffee cause, please contact Sarah Bradford-Burton. (A breakdown of coffee costs will be placed near the coffee maker if you'd like to know what's in your cup!)
