We have again let too much time pass by between letters. It is hard to believe that we have 4 weeks of school left. We have finished with sports seasons for this year, but there is enough on our plates to keep us busy.
To recap since our last letter, the girls’ basketball team did very well in their tournament in Guam. They had some good games and didn’t lose any until the final championship game against Seoul American. The girls played hard and took second. They also had fun making friends with girls from the other teams. After getting back from Guam, Juliana decided to try Track and Field this year. She focused on field events: discus and shot put and long jump. She came in the middle of the training and missed the first 2 meets, but did very well considering the short amount of time to train and had fun. Another of Juliana’s achievements this year was being accepted into the National Honor Society. We are proud of her.
The girls are getting busy now with end of the year projects as well as performances. Next week is the girls’ final piano recital. Juliana is working on a biology project and attempting to grow a tomato plant in a bucket upside down. She will need to do something with it in regards to the community as well. The end of this month will be finals for the high school. Next week, Abby will shadow a 6th grade student and see what middle school is like. It is also hot season now and difficult to maintain our energy and focus.
Walt has been very busy with scheduling for next year and other administrative things. He will also be going with the 8th graders on a retreat this weekend. Please pray for that. He has also been busy as a counselor in a not so fun way. He would appreciate your prayers for wisdom.
We have had a few opportunities to visit with our boys on Skype and that has been fun. They are doing well and it looks like they have jobs lined up for them this summer. Paul enjoyed traveling with the college choir and singing in various churches in the upper Midwest. He also played his trumpet for one of the songs. We got to see his performance in one church online. Continue to pray for them and their finances. They are done next week with classes.
Thank you for your continued prayer for us and our ministry at Faith Academy. Your prayers and financial giving are a blessing, enabling us to stay on the field. Continue to uphold the staffing needs for next year. There are many holes to fill. You can check out the needs at www.faith.edu.ph.
In Christ,
Cheryl for all the Spicers
