News and Updates from HCS

Message from Head of School


As we celebrate the joy of Christmas, we give thanks for the blessing of learning and growing together. This season reminds us of the miracle of Christ’s birth and of God’s faithfulness in keeping His promises.


This year, my deep hope is that our community continues to grow as Kingdom Seekers - students, families, and staff who see all of life as part of God’s story and who trust Him in every circumstance. Jesus entered the world in humility, showing us that true strength is found in dependence on the Father and confidence in His provision.


This Christmas, may our hearts be anchored in the hope of Emmanuel - God with us. May Christ’s light shape our classrooms and homes, guiding us to live with faith, gratitude, and joyful trust in God’s good plans.



Thank you for partnering with us in this meaningful work. May the peace and joy of Christ be with you this Christmas and throughout the coming year.

With gratitude and hope,


Brian Goodbar

Speedy Mikes Fundraiser for the Creation Museum Trip


We are once again teaming up with Speedy Mike's for a fun and easy fundraiser! We are excited to use this fundraiser to assist in the cost of the Creation Museum trip for our 7th and 8th grade students. From November 26th through December 23rd, you can purchase a Speedy Mike's car wash, and 50% of the proceeds come right back to Heritage!

It’s a simple way to support our school (and get a shiny clean car!)

Basketball Concession Workers Needed


If you are a basketball or cheerleading parent, love the game of basketball, or just want to serve at Heritage, we are looking for volunteers to work concessions at our basketball games this winter. All the jobs are easy to learn and any training needed before the game can be provided. High school students can also volunteer for silver cord hours. If you also have a responsible 4th-8th grade child that you think would be helpful, you can sign them up to work a shift with you as well. To sign-up, please use the sign-up genius link below.

Pray for the Nations

 

Please continue to pray for global workers Michael and Mary Pretorious and for our Compassion International sponsored child, Kossigan, from Togo. Students are welcome to contribute towards Kossigan’s sponsorship (through Compassion International) by giving money in their classrooms or the office. Thank you!

 

Please pray for:

·        Protection (physical, spiritual, emotional, etc.)

·        Boldness (to share Jesus authentically and powerfully)

·        Peace (people of peace to help share the Good News)

·        Assurance (that God is with them and is for them)
