Friday Blue Notes
May 14, 2010
Flea Market - Saturday - June 5th - rain or shine; in case of rain it will move indoors. This project is really taking off. We are starting to get requests for spaces, we have rummage stuff from the church, some nicer things for silent auction, the ice cream has been donated by Klein's, many of you are donating time and talents to make this a great success. Be sure to tell everyone you know about our plans for the day so lots of people attend and have a good time. Keep praying for good weather.
End of Year Field Trip - Wednesday, June 2nd. We have reserved a 55-passenger bus and made reservations at Port Discovery from 10:00 to Noon and I-Max for the afternoon showing. Students and their parents or parents' substitutes are all invited. Students are paid for through their activity fee. Adults and other guests are $25.00 for Port Discovery, I-Max and for the bus. Deadline for reservations and payment for the day is May 20th. Plan on packing a disposable lunch that does not need to be kept cold and all containers can be thrown away. I think for ease of spotting our students and creating a sense of unity, "school dress" for the students would be nice (either the daily uniform or the P.E. uniform). Another permission slip was attached to the hard copy of the blue notes.
Mission Project - Our collections in chapel are for a school that is being built in Liberia, 90 miles from Monrovia. It will cost $10,000 to complete the school. This will make it possible for over 150 students to have a place to be educated and also learn about Jesus and His forgiving love. We are joining with all the other Lutheran schools in Maryland to make this school a reality.
