• With the cold and flu season in full swing, we remind you of how to help prevent the spread of these illnesses. It is very important to keep your child at home if he or she has any of the following symptoms: fever, body aches, chills and sweats, persistent cough, fatigue/weakness or nasal congestion.

The January virtue is PATIENCE. Our verse this week is from James 1:4, “But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.”
