Reminder
Welcome 2009!  May God bless our children, families, school, and church.  God has blessed our school with two new children, one in Kindergarten and another student in fourth grade.  Please pray for all children to grow in Christ.

For the month of January, First Lutheran Church will have one service at 9:00 a.m.  Sunday School will be 10:30-11:15. If you do not have a church home, we would love for you to come and worship with us!

The LWML (Lutheran Women's Missionary League) of First Lutheran Church will have a German Dinner Festival Saturday, January 17th from 5:00-7:00 at First Lutheran School.  They will have the same menu as last year and the food was outstanding!!!  Children also eat free!  If you would like to come, we are selling tickets at the office, or come and see me. 

We will have book reports and math homework this week.

Please save your Box Tops and aluminum cans.  This is a great way for our school to earn money.

Thank you, Mrs. Grimes, for all of your hard work for the Christmas party.  The children had a wonderful time.  Thank you also for all of the special gifts that you sent.  It was very kind and thoughtful of you.

In Christ,

Mrs. Ballard
