7th Weekly Update

Christ Our Builder 

 

Updates

The One-Act Plays are tonight, and I know how much time the kids have put into their roles.  For some, it is stepping out of their comfort zone; for others, they’ve discovered, it is theirs!  It’s been fun to see how they encourage each other.

 

Availability:  With an increase in enrollment, especially in our younger grades, and more and more parents going back to work in person, we are seeing a growing trend in the number of families needing after school care.  

 

 God has blessed our Extended Care program with great workers, and we are looking to grow our team to help care for our students. If you know anyone - a high schooler, college student, neighbor - looking for a part time position and they have a heart for children, we would love to add another friendly face or two to our AfterCare staff.  If they would only be available a few hours, Thursdays and Fridays especially are days we are in need of extra help.  If you know someone who would like to apply, or be a great addition to St. Paul, please have them reach out to Ms. Jess at jessica.koch@splgrafton.org  

 

I want to share another thank you to you all as I know many continue to keep my mom and my family in your prayers.  Truly, I am grateful.
