See You At The Pole at FMCS

It all started twenty years ago when a group of students met in a home bible study to talk about a way they could minister to their school - today, millions are out at their flag poles praying (www.syatp.com)!

Today in the middle school, NJHS leaders met and prayed in small groups with their peers. Several members held signs to encourage drivers to have a great morning!

No Bullies Allowed

Today we had assemblies led by First Assembly's Masters Commission. The topic - be yourself, believe in yourself, be positive with each other, don't be a bully. Students in grades 3-8 listened to great music, testimonies, and dramas. The messages will be reinforced all year.
