Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.- Ephesians 4:32
We are already looking ahead to the 2026-2027 school year! To ensure we have the right resources in place for our students, please let us know your enrollment intentions by completing this ultra-quick survey. It takes less than two minutes!
A few small actions can make a massive difference in keeping everyone out of harm's way.
To ensure a stress-free and safe environment for all, please keep these three "Golden Rules" in mind:
Maintain a Crawl: Please move your vehicle at a "crawl" pace. Slowing down gives you the vital seconds needed to react to the unexpected.
Eyes Up for Little Ones: Children can be unpredictable and are often difficult to see from the driver’s seat. Please be extra vigilant and scan between parked cars for our smallest community members.
Park the Phone: Distracted driving isn't just for the highway. Please stay off your devices until your engine is off and you are safely parked.
The Bottom Line: Safety is a team effort. Thank you for looking out for one another and working together to keep our lot a secure space for everyone!
During the season of Lent we will hold church services at 4:00pm and at 6:30pm.
Please remember that the main parking lot will be busy after school. We ask anyone attending church to wait to park in the main lot until the buses leave.
We also have our fellowship Lenten Suppers between services. All are welcome to join us.
We could use some help setting up for the meals and with clean up after the meals. Please consider helping for one or more time slots. You can volunteer for this by clicking HERE.
