School is Back

We just finished our first two weeks of after school and have 23 children in the program. We have not only K-6th grade this year but have also taken on a 4 year old class that starts 30 minutes before the other kids get there and lets out at 6 with everyone else. It haas been a really great start to the school year, we have been having a lot of fun and have already taken on a Fall service project, collecting change from the kids to adopt a child from the Angel Tree.
Right now there are only four staff members including myself and Corey teaching in the after school program but luckily there are two teens that have committed to bring there everyday to help with whatever we need help with and to help me with the 4's class. Little kids are so cute and complicted, you never know what is going to come out of their mouths, cute, wired, and really bad, but mostly cute.
Please be praying for all our families in the community. There has been a lot of sickness going around, strep and flu, and several of our children and elderly have been down for several days now, with this crud. It really affects our programs and being able to be in the schools because when everyone is sick people don't come to things, and programs have to be cancelled. We know folks will get healthy soon enough, we just pray it's before people's lives are really affected.

Last thing, I hope to get a picture of our kids up sometime this week, we got one of them the other day, we had about 16 kids there at the time, i will warn you it's a really cute picture =)

Have a Fantastic Night !!
