Spring Happenings - 2018

Spring was full of all kinds of events from art shows to the end of school!  Our beloved headmaster, John Geiger, was stepping down from his position at the end of the school year due to ALS.  Hope painted him a special painting of the lion and lamb.  She was able to present this to him in between his classes in the upper school.  He is a mighty warrior for the Kingdom of Jesus and is speaking throughout the River Region.  He also wrote a special song and each child has a copy in his/her special book.  He is truly an example of Christ-likeness to all of us.

Hope was Justinian the Great during a presentation at school.  We learned that he was born in Bulgaria - not too far from Moldova!  Hope found a huge turtle in the neighborhood and transplanted it in the lake behind our house.  Hope enjoyed a field trip to AUM and learned all about water!  The kids enjoyed a gluten - free cake for their Gotcha Day.  It was icing on the cake to have Beth with us this year.  The year was so busy, that we did not do our regular releasing of balloons - maybe next year!  Hope enjoyed a field trip to the McWane Center in B'ham.  Hope and Will enjoyed participating in the RA/GA derby car races at church.  Hope actually came in 1st place!  Hope placed in the State wide art show and Will played great at the talent show at Eastwood!
