“My whole heart follows hard after you and clings closely to you!”
We were thrilled bout our first spiritual emphasis week for the 2010-2011 school year. It was held September 20-24.
The theme for Elementary School was “Spirit of the Seas.” Each day during bible time, students focused on a bible story which all centered in on obedience. The stories covered during this week were: Jesus Calming the Storm, Noah and the Ark, Jonah, The Disciples Casting Their Nets & Peter Walking on the Water. Each day students were able to have worship time, a bible lesson, memory verse and complete a craft. The week concluded with an interactive bible story, including a large boat and someone “walking on water,” during chapel. It was a great week and students received a certificate and snack for their completion of our Spiritual Emphasis Week.
Pastor Tom Mahairas (founder of Manhattan Bible Church) came in to speak to our Middle and High Schoolers. He graciously shared his testimony with them and spoke about how God rescued him from a life of drug addiction. Pastor Mahairas also shared that there are 3 types of Believers….. The Believer, The Non-Believer, and the Make-Believer…….he challenged them as to which one they were. At the end he asked all those that would like to rededicate their lives to Christ to come forward. On Friday he shared with them that they are special and that God loves them very much. Seven students came forward to receive Jesus as their personal Saviour. He also asked student to pray for one another.
We praise God for His presence and for moving amongst our students. We are excited to see what He has in store for us this school year!
