First Across the Finish Line

Congratulations, Henri!

Today our first four mighty readers reached 40 books in the Forty Book Challenge!

An interview with Henri:

“My favorite books so far have been The Boxcar Children.  They are the kind of books you can read multiple times without getting bored.  The author did a great job describing things, kind of like C.S. Lewis does.

Right now I am reading books of the Bible on my own.  I really liked Romans because it shows a lot about loving people and being kind towards them.  I want to trust God more and more.  The Bible is really interesting.

I hope to read Exodus next.”

Flying Through the Generations

Mrs. B.’s Uncle Ed has piloted well over 1,000 Young Eagles in the Young Eagles program.  Notice the Young Eagles shirt that he wore when he recently visited from the west coast!

This week Joshua joined his sister and brother (and over 2.3 million other young people) in the World’s Largest Logbook after completing his Young Eagles flight.

How thankful we are for all these pilots who give so generously to help young people aspire to great things and reach for their dreams.

Prayer Vigil

Mrs. Green shared:  “We are just leaving the prayer vigil for Israel and I wanted to send you this picture. It was a beautiful service where many Jewish people and non Jewish people gathered to pray. In the picture below is our friend Rabbi Moshe. Thank you for teaching your students to pray for this broken world.”
