Missions Week!

So we move from one crazy, fun week of school last week into Missions Week this week.  The kids loved all the fun themes last week!  They both really went all out with the dressing up stuff!

Matthew was one of the winners last week!
 Character day ...
 Disgust & Angry

Look a likes ...

Now moving into a Mission Themed week ... it should be refreshing!!!  And quite.  Hadassah left the house early this morning.  She was looking forward to this week for a long time!  Her class in "on the mission field" all week long.  In Cherokee, North Carolina!  It took her some time packing and reading through the booklet that went over some missionary details.  We quickly went out shopping for a few more skirts on Saturday evening because there will be no laundry done till they get back home.  She grabbed a few snacks to take along.  Hadassah was a bundle of nerves and emotions this morning when I woke her up at 4:30 this morning.  She was excited and yet anxious about leaving home for a few days without Mike or I going along.  I know she will be just fine and will have a blast!  We are praying that Jesus will shine through the kids this week as they serve and bless and that alone always gives a return.  Hadassah will be blessed this week too as she serves!

Mike took her over to school at 5:15 AM!  The other 8th grade students were arriving and loading their things into the three vans that will be taking them ten hours south!  I cant imagine all the energy that got exchanged so bright and early!!!  :)  Join us in  praying for the eighth graders this week as they minister in N.C.!!!  We will miss Hadassah like crazy!



Missions week at school will be great for Matthew too!  They will be challenged and told stories of missionaries!  Missionaries will be coming to share their stories with the school!  It's gonna be another exciting week!!!

With the sun out bright and mild weather, I am getting spring fever!!!  Hurry come spring time!!!
