Dear Middle School Parents,
I hope you have enjoyed the cooler weather this week as much as I have! It has been wonderful to be able to walk outside without immediately being drenched in sweat. I will always appreciate the change of seasons.
You might not know this, but each division of the school begins its morning with a devotional shared by faculty members. Thursdays are when I get to share with the team. This year, I have chosen to follow the same theme as our chapel services: “Jesus said…”. The goal is to spend time reflecting on and learning from the life and teachings of Jesus.
This morning, I shared from Matthew 5:13-16, which is the section of the Sermon on the Mount where Jesus talks about His followers being salt and light. These well-known verses remind us that we are called to have a positive impact on the world around us. As salt, we are to add a positive flavor and enhance the places we exist. As light, we are to illuminate the world, helping people see the goodness of our Saviour. These verses were especially challenging to me this week, and I hope they encourage each of you to consider who we are in Christ and the impact we have on the world around us.
May you have a blessed and restful weekend ahead.
Blessings,
Will Schroeder
Middle School Principal
