HAWKS HEROES BREAKFAST
Thank you to all who attended.
Students were so proud to be with their heroes,
and heroes seemed proud of their students.
Special thanks to the mens group from WMC and Chef Bob who prepared the generous breakfast ,
and to PTF for the planning and preparation.
Thanks, also, to our Youth Pastor, Bradd Blocker,
for sharing a devotion from Jeremiah 29:11.
Whether young, or not so young, God has plans and a path for all of us.
We hope it was a blessed time for all who attended.

Let's Keep the Morning
Carpool Line Moving
Parents,
Please make sure your students are ready to exit the car before you enter the drop-off zone.
Your student should be ready to hop out with their jacket, backpack, lunchbox, and water bottle.
It is important to keep our car line moving for the courtesy of others and, for Lower School, to prevent cars from backing up on Weddington School Road.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

All interested students, 6th grade and up, are invited
to join Confirmation Classes at WMC.
Church membership is not required.
Confirmation is a sacred time for our youth to take a spiritual journey that nurtures and challenges them to discern their own faith as they reflect on the nature of God, their relationship with Jesus Christ, being a member of the church, and the basics of our Wesleyan theology.
The classes will begin Sunday, February 4 for youth, 6th grade and above. These classes will be led by Dr. Moore, our youth ministers, and members of our ministry staff. Those who plan to attend confirmation are encouraged to mark your calendars! We have made every effort to be respectful of busy schedules and we would very much appreciate those participating to make that participation, and attendance, a priority
