FROM OUR PRINCIPAL
Hi Families,
Next Friday we will be having our annual Father Son Challenge at the Agritopia campus. New this year, the event is open to all boys and their dads in grades PK-8. This is a special event for dads and their sons to have an evening hanging out and engaging in various activities and challenges together. Branching from our school year theme, Unashamed, the theme for the Father Son Challenge is inspired from Jude 3, where the apostle Paul urges the believers to “contend for the faith.”
The term contend can refer to struggling, striving or engaging in an earnest dispute. As believers, we are called to engage in the spiritual battle and confront the culture that challenges truth. In a fallen world that needs the good news of Jesus Christ, our desire is to equip our students to be contenders for the faith by living unashamed of the gospel and sharing the love and truth of Christ in their daily lives.
Today is the deadline to register, and we hope you can join us next Friday, November 14th from 4:30-7:00pm for a memorable evening!
Educating with eternity in mind,
