Jenn’s Pen - Lasting Friendships by: Mrs. Jennifer Thompson About 20 years ago, my oldest son, Matt, come running home from the first day of second grade very excited say, “Mom, I met my best friend today and he loves Jesus, too!” I was thrilled, because at that time, my kids were attending the neighborhood public school. From that moment on, Matt and Jordan were inseparable. They both graduated from Christian high school and attended a Christian college together. Jordan was in Matt’s wedding, and I’ll bet when the time comes, Matt will be in Jordan’s. Today I picked Jordan up from the airport for his week-long visit with Matt. We had lunch, and I was once again reminded how important Christian friends are to each other, and how having Christ in common is the key to a close friendship. I love to see those friendships developing here on the SJCS campus. God is so good at putting just the right people into our lives at just the right time. That is what community should be and is at SJCS, a place to Love, learn and serve as friends together.

The Trial of the Big Bad Wolf! The performance this past Saturday, by the SJCS Middle School was excellent. The tale was lighthearted with a big message. Do not be quick to judge and there are usually two sides to every story. Thank you to Miss Laverman and the entire cast for sharing their gifts with us.
Calling All Middle School Boys
The girls aren't the only ones who can have a cool club! Come hang out with Dr. J, Mr. Bost, and Mr. I this Friday from 3:15-4:45. We will have pizza, an activity, and fellowship as we talk about what it means to be a man in today's culture. We'll have time to eat, play, and pray together. This event is open to all 6th-8th grade boys.
