Ready For Pastor Appreciation Chapel ~ Oct. 14th




During reading buddies on Friday, the students worked together to make gifts for our pastors. Students mixed up, bagged, and decorated 50 bags of "Blessings Mix". A wonderful treat for some wonderful servants of God!

"Blessings Mix"

The Bugles are a symbol of the cornucopia, a horn of plenty.

The Pretzels represent arms folded in thanks and prayer.

The Candy Corn reminds us that during the first winter, the pilgrims were allowed only five kernels of corn per day because food was so scarce.

The Fruit is a reminder that Thanksgiving is the celebration of the harvest.

The Peanuts represent seeds, the potential of the bounteous harvest for the next season if they are planted and well tended.
