A Last Word from the Head of School

SO THEN, BROTHERS, STAND FIRM AND HOLD TO THE TRADITIONS THAT YOU WERE TAUGHT BY US, EITHER BY OUR SPOKEN WORD OR BY OUR LETTER.

- 2 Thessalonians 2:15

DEAR EAGLE NATION,

I hope you enjoyed reading this edition of Legacy’s Impact magazine. I was particularly moved by the article and tributes to Coach Mike Hall. I knew Mike and his wife, Raylene, since 2001. Many things about Mike challenged me as a young coach and educator, but nothing more than watching him develop quality mentoring relationships. He cared about every boy and girl who crossed his path, whether in his classroom, in the corridors, or as an athlete. Most important, he wanted them to know Jesus.

Mike had a passionate relationship with his Savior. He talked about Jesus all the time and was tireless in spreading the gospel. As a result, Mike had an impact on our school that will be felt for generations.

God, in His trinitarian nature, exists in relationship with the Son and the Holy Spirit. As beings made in the image of God, we were created to exist in our relationships with others and with God. I heard someone say recently that we were made to live our days like bananas — in bunches. It’s a nice picture and it’s why, for many, the after effects of the pandemic have been devastating. Compelled to live in isolation, people of all ages — from children to the elderly — have faced anxiety and depression in skyrocketing numbers. This burdens my heart and stirs me to action as we continue our work to ensure that our community stays connected during both bad times and good ones.

It is my prayer that this year we focus on the sweet spirit of Christian community. Ours should be a model for how to live and grow together in grace and love. I pray we seek a unity of purpose that is quite simply to know Christ. As we grow ever deeper in our faith, we grow together as a community.

Will you join me in seeking first the Kingdom of God (Matthew 6:13) in your personal life, in the life of your family, and in this special community we call Legacy Christian Academy? I believe that in doing so, we will produce much fruit for the Kingdom (Jeremiah 17:7–8).

Growing together,

Kevin L. Mosley Head of School
