Peace and Quiet

Peace and quiet are becoming harder to find in our modern society.  Just walk through the middle of any college campus and note the high percentage of persons that you pass who are watching or listening to their phones or have ear buds firmly planted in their ears.

     Little Lights Preschool
 
  Spring is happening this month and our preschoolers are ready for warm weather.  We will do interesting activities related to Spring.
  We will continue to have Show & Tell.  This month the objects will begin with the letters I,J,K,L,M,N,O and P.
   The MWF class will learn that God wants us to get along with others through Bible stories about Joseph and his brothers.  The T/Th class will learn that God wants us to obey Him through the Bible story about Jonah and the whale.
  We will have Spring Break March 25-29.  We are hoping for some great Spring-like weather!
