Unexpected Surgery

Opportunities for Missionaries’ Kids

September 17, 2016

We want to see them grow […]

Quarter One Conferences

First quarter has come and gone. Abby only has a couple weeks left of volleyball. Since this is my first full year as middle school principal, I will not be coaching this year, but I know I will be peaking my nose in the gym a few times. First quarter was filled with activities and […]
