BE A GOOD STEWARD! CARE FOR CREATION! How are you taking care of God's great creation, namely the planet? Here are a few ways you can do your part: 1. Stay away from using Styrofoam whenever possible. 2. Give up plastic straws. 3. Buy wooden hairbrushes and non-plastic toothbrushes. 4. Use glass jars for food storage rather than plastic. 5. Reduce your purchase of plastic products. 6. Recycle your plastic containers, soda cans, cardboard items, paper, etc. 7. Choose re-usable drinking containers. 8. Use re-usable grocery bags; or ask for paper sacks rather than plastic bags for your groceries. 9. Don't litter! Take pride in your surroundings and keep them clean (your house, your yard, your block, your road).
SOMEONE SAID, "AN INHERITANCE IS WHAT YOU LEAVE "TO" SOMEONE. A LEGACY IS WHAT YOU LEAVE "IN" SOMEONE". Let's pour love, positivity, can-do attitude, principled leadership, and the love of God into all our children and students. After all, it still takes a village! Set the example! Someone is watching you.
Micah 6:8 No, O people, the LORD has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
We also remember those we lost this year. We pray for God's tender hand of comfort, strength and mercy now and in the days ahead in the name of Jesus.
