CAMPUS SHUTDOWN
Normal operations at Maranatha came to a halt in March when it was announced that the remainder of the semester would be completed virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This was heartbreaking to many students as choir tours, the school play, summer traveling teams, and other major activities would be cancelled. However, with the encouragement and prayers of faculty and staff, the students endured and finished the semester strong. Many students went home, but some stayed on campus. The Office of Student Activities found ways to unite the remaining student body. One such event was the COVID Cup. Teams comprised of students, faculty, and staff competed in the socially distanced dodgeball tournament. This was a fun event to end an otherwise stressful year. Chapels were continued virtually to encourage the students and stay connected.
