What an exciting time we had at our Capital Campaign Kick-off! We were blessed by our students
and faculty as they sang and shared their talents with us. Mr. and Mrs. Jeff
Meade shared some of the goals and fundraising ideas for the next few months.
Pastor Scott Mishler led us in a time of prayer for LBA. After the meeting, we
enjoyed a time of food and fellowship.
One of our plans is to contribute
coins (dollars) to change the future of LBA.
We are asking everyone to save your change. Every coin given will
help us reach our goal of ending the year in the black and of paying off our
short-term loans. Each homeroom has a collection jar for the students of that
class to contribute their coins (dollars). How much do you think we can collect
in coins from January 15 - April 1? See other Year of Jubilee information
attached.
On Friday night, Kevin Chao, one
of our Taiwanese sixth graders, shared his testimony. What a blessing to hear
this young man share his heart with us! Following is his
speech:
The reason I
love LBA is it's a Christian school. Everyone is nice.
Mrs. Hackler
is always very happy when we come to school.
Almost every
time, excluding holidays, when I come to school, she is always standing by the
door, and opens the door with a smile to welcome me and all the students, even
when the weather became freezing cold outside.
After that I
go to the classroom for the wonderful day. We will pray first and put on the
full armor of God (Ephesians 6: 10-18). In
I wish LBA was
bigger and had a gym, too. The big reason is no big deal with small school, and
even that we don't have a gym or we don't get enough money, but God will help us
to solve the problem.
I love LBA
because of the friends I've made here. They are helpful and friendly; they don't
fight; they take care of the smaller kids; they are caring. They do all the good
things, because Emmanuel, which means God, the only true God, is with us; they
show us the way, the truth, and the life.
Do you have
salvation? If not, you need it now.
