January 7th, 2014 HAPPY NEW YEAR!




2014. It is a new year on the calendar as the school year continues.  It is an excellent time to take stock of God’s good gifts in our lives and what we do with them.  Reflections on the year past will bring some fondness, some sadness, possibly times of great joy and remembrances of the brokenness that plagues our world.  In all of the ups and downs and twists and turns it is right to start this year off in that sweet spot where we choose to say, “God is Good.”  Living in that truth through the redeeming work of Christ enables us to respond with heartfelt sacrifice.  What sacrifice is asked of us?  We are called to be living sacrifices to God, humbly serving in the body of Christ through love.   Providence, as part of the body of Christ, looks to live and learn and serve humbly in 2014.  We are so thankful for the opportunities that we were presented with in 2013 and was we now approach a new year we humbly ask for more way to grow in the knowledge, and wonder and grace of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.  We ask you to pray that we will continue to seek ways to provide quality education founded on Him who does not change like shifting shadows.  Pray also that we will humbly develop the good gifts God has graciously given each student from above.  Ultimately, we ask you to pray that the Spirit will continue to knock on our hearts that we may persistently and respectfully prepare these children for a life of Christian service that is born out of a life of profound gratitude and living sacrifice for the accomplished work of our Saviour and Lord.  May we follow closer to Jesus this year than in any other.  ~Mr. Bouwers
